31 Week Bumpdate

How far along? 31 weeks! 
Baby is the size of a: pineapple. Most babies at this stage are roughly 18 inches long and 3.5lbs, but our little moose weighs about 4lbs 7oz and is measuring 2 weeks ahead! 
Total weight gain: I didn’t weigh myself this week. 
Stretch marks? A few on my sides and one on my boob, but they’re not a big deal.  Chris said they’re my trophies and I’ll proudly wear them because they are the result of two amazing boys.  
Maternity clothes? All the time or leggings/workout pants. 
Sleep: Sleep was okay this week; I got a sinus infection this week so being congested didn’t allow me to get good sleep. 
Best moment this week: We got to see Logan at our monthly ultrasound and he is so adorable. We are so excited to meet him in person.  
Miss anything? Beer.... anything with alcohol.  Being pregnant with a toddler can be rough some days!
Food cravings: Nothing this week.  
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope. 
Gender: BOY!! 
Labor signs: None this week. 
Symptoms:  No crazy symptoms this week, Logan is treating me pretty well.  I’m still getting lots of rolls and pushing body parts out on my belly.  He’s also been getting the hiccups multiple times a day. 
Belly button in or out? Out unless I’m laying down on my back
Wedding rings on or off: On.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Christmas and meeting with our doula.

I’ve had two NST’s so far and we’ve passed both.  I just sit on a chair for about 30 minutes and they monitor Logan’s heart and make sure there are good accelerations and decelerations showing he’s not in distress. I haven’t had any contractions during the NST’s which is good.  

We had our monthly ultrasound this week and Logan loved having his umbilical chord by his face.  He just looks so sweet and is measuring two weeks ahead! He is going to be a big boy and we’ll see if we make it to my due date. I think Logan will be born on February 7th, but we’ll see! 

We also had our maternity pictures this week and we’re slowly getting sneak peaks. So far we love how they’re turning out and can’t wait to see the rest of them!  Next week we meet with our doula to go over our birth plan and I can’t believe how close we’re getting to meeting our second son!
