31 weeks

How far along?: 31 wks 1 day

63 days until my due date! I am hoping for more like 45 days, haha!

Total weight gain: 24 lbs

Peanut’s growth: Peanut should measure about 18 inches long from head to toe and weighs about 3.5 pounds. Rather than hearing vibrations, baby's nerve endings in his/her ears are connected now so that s/he can hear distinct sounds, like familiar voices and music.


Maternity clothes: Just bought some new ones for Florida and I am glad I did. We are having a "heat wave" here in STL! It is 85 today!

Sleep: I am sleeping ok. If I wake in the middle of the night it is sometimes hard fo rme to fall back asleep.

Best moment of the week: hearing Peanut's heartbeat at the doctors office

Worst moment of the week: Finding out that Jace will for sure need to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. They want him to have it done ASAP since it is so bad. ASAP to them is May 10th, which happens to be his 3rd birthday. He won't know but I will :( The month of May is going to be crazy with soccer games, surgery, weekly appointments, dance recital, school ending and POSSIBLY Peanuts arrival! AHHHH!

Movement: A LOT!!

Gender: Surprise

Food cravings: Ice cream :)

Labor signs: nothing at all!

What I miss most: sleeping on my belly

What I'm looking forward to: The weekend. We are going to get the garden set up as much as we can and get our yard cleaned up. A clean yard=a happy mama!!!

Next appointment: April 14th.
