31 weeks 2 days

How far along? 31 weeks 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: Not sure, I think I'm on track though
Sleep: It's great until I have to flip over, which is quite a feat of engineering at this point!
Best moment this week: Picking out all the fixin's for our new kitchen, Mom buying her plane tickets, finalizing baby shower plans with Celyn & Sian- I'm excited!
Movement: Tons, and he feels super low, judging by the pressure on my bladder
Gender: Boy!!
Labor Signs: Lots and lots of Braxton Hicks contractions, and their starting to get pretty uncomfortable. Other than that I'd say he's still cooking happily!
Belly Button in or out? Still an innie, I can't really see it popping out, but who knows!
Food cravings/aversions: None really, I'm just hungrier than normal, so I'm pretty much eating constantly at this point!
What I miss: Being able to walk a reasonable distance without getting the overwhelming urge to pee.
I am looking forward to: My baby shower at the end of the month!
Weekly Wisdom: Now that I'm getting into the home stretch, I'm trying to take things day by day, rather than looking towards the "finish line" too much. Otherwise, I find I get overwhelmed with all we have to do, and frustrated feeling like there's still so much time to go.
Milestones: Tons! Baby boy can now open and close his eyes, see light through the walls of the womb, he can practice breathing movements, and is now head down (let's hope he stays that way!)
