How Far Along - 31 Weeks! Only single digits to go...holy cow!
Size of Baby - Patrick is over 16 inches long and weighs about 3.3 lbs (The size of four naval oranges)
What the baby can do this week- He is getting ready to head into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side and his arms and legs are beginning to plump out as fat accumulates under his skin (I love baby rolls!)
Total Weight Gain - 20 pounds. Still on my 1 pound a week, so I will take it. At this rate I will gain around 30 pounds by the time we are all said and and done. I guess I can deal with that!
Maternity Clothes - Sweatpants. HA
Gender - A baby boy! Patrick James
Sleep - Pretty good. I am getting up more often to use the bathroom and tossing and turning as I try to find a comfortable position. It will all be worth it!
What I Crave - I really haven't been that hungry. I think Patrick is smushing my stomach.
Symptoms - Patrick is moving all over the place! I love it! The belly is definitely sticking out now! Almost 29 cm at the last appointment. (Up 3 cm in 2 weeks!)
Baby Purchases - We received the glider (you may have read about that fiasco). We are still getting in contact with the company and trying to get it fixed. Michael's mom bought us the cutest baby blanket. She had it made and it has his name on it. I like it better than the bedding I picked out!
It's kind of hard to see, sorry!
I had an appointment yesterday with my Doc. My BP was back up again :( I have to do another 24 hour urine and get more bloodwork done. I start doing a bio physical profile on Patrick every week. It includes an ultrasound and a non-stress test. Not sure what this entails but basically it is to make sure he is doing ok and moving around like he should. I just hope my BP stays where it is (ideally goes done) so I don't have to worry.
