31 Weeks

The week has been good so far; I had the last of my baby showers and all were wondeful! I'm lucky to have such great friends and family to help me prepare for and welcome our little girl! We're just about all set for her, just need a pretty major piece of furniture for her nursery and a few necessities.

Here are a few milestones for the week:
How far along? 31 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: +25 lbs.
Maternity clothes? Yes
Sleep: Waking up a couple of times a night
Best moment this week: Seeing my friends at my baby shower - so much fun! Also, being told I was "all belly" when I've felt so huge for weeks now. Thanks ladies! Talk about great friends. :) Here's a picture of me at the shower - between 30 and 31 weeks.
Movement: all over
Food cravings: peaches
Gender: Girl!
Labor Signs: none
Belly Button in or out? still an innie, one night, it looked like it was a total innie as normal but then the next morning it was kinda flat again. I guess she was in different places both times!
What I miss: not having heartburn...
What I am looking forward to: washing all the little clothes!
Weekly Wisdom: enjoy eating now because once the baby arrives, I'm sure I'll be worrying about losing the baby weight!
Milestones: I guess you could call this a milestone - I started having Braxton Hicks contractions since Sunday (the day after I was talking about never feeling them!)

Heartburn - had it bad! If you haven't already figured out what makes it better, the liquid Mylanta or Maalox is the only thing that worked for me. None of the pills or chewables did a thing! You look so cute, by the way!!!
