31 Week Baby Bump Update



How far along? 31 Weeks

Weight gain? On a normal incline upward. My midwife is pleased with my weight gain even though I still hate seeing that number go up and up.

Maternity clothes? I have to wear maternity clothes almost always now. My shirts are getting shorter and shorter which means that my clothes are getting more and more limited. 

Stretch Marks? No new ones but I have a few that might be growing a little bit.

Sleep? What's that? I do get sleep but I wake up from about 2 until 5 and then get waken up by Monkey at 6:30 to 7 and I'm so not ready to be up for the day. Oh well, I will get sleep in about 10 to 15 years when my boys enjoy sleeping in right?

Best Moment this Week? Getting to see Goose again on ultrasound. Had to see the cardiologist to make sure his heart is OK because Monkey has a small heart murmur and they wanted to check out Goose's. The cardiologist isn't concerned and even said that we don't need to worry about checking him after he's born.

Food Cravings? Milk, milk and more milk. I can't seem to get enough. Chocolate milk, cookies and milk, milk with meals, milk at my 2 am wake up. Seriously, I can't get enough. I drink about 2 gallons of milk every other day or so. (Hubby helps me too so it's not all me.)

Gender? Still a boy as far as I know. 

Labor signs? Nope. And I'm glad. He needs to stay in a cook just a little longer.

Belly button in or out? In. Never came out with Monkey but Goose seems bigger so I'm not sure if that will change.

What I miss? Bending over without being uncomfortable. Also having a bra that is comfortable. I'm getting so big that it is hurting. Just waiting for Hubby to get back into working (with him being so sick for so long it might take a little time) so I can head out to get new ones. That's the problem with having a large chest, bras cost $50 to $100 a piece so I can't just go get some.

Milestones? We got an infant carseat. Ours expires soon after Goose would be born and it weighs a ton so we found one at a garage sale that looked brand new. I got it washed this weekend and put together so it's all ready. Plus I finished washing more of his blankets and clothes that I bought for him and they are all put away in his dresser. I'm starting to get excited!

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug...

I'm taking the challenge!

I'm taking the challenge and I'm going to talk about the subject many people hush about! SEX!  Normally this would be completely outside my comfort zone (truthfully not sure I will post this as I'm typing) but I figure why not?!?  Being married makes it OK to talk about! We get so much from media that maybe it's about time that more people talk about the appropriated subjects of Sex!  First, let me start off by saying I did not wait until I was married. Looking back I wish I did because I have baggage, my hubby has baggage, and truthfully this subject has been the main topic of the majority of our fights for the past 5 years.  Just recently I started caring more about what I was wearing to bed just like  Mrs. T, Naturally  is talking about.  I'm sure must men would love it if their wives went to bed wearing something like this ------------------>  (I know my hubby would) however when you have little ones around (a...
