Another week has flown by and 31 weeks is here. We are into the single digits until baby! She is the size of a broccoli stalk this week, 16.6 inches and 3.5ish lbs.
I had an OB appointment last week and everything is on track and my health is good. I have good blood pressure and my weight gain is also steady. She is still head down which she has been even before 19 weeks. I'm praying she stays this way and doesn't decide to flip at the last second.
I am SO thankful that I have not gotten pneumonia from Luke and as of yesterday he is now cleared to go back to work! Praise the Lord! He is still feeling some of the symptoms which is normal but his lungs are better and he should be 100% in a couple days. :)
My belly is feeling VERY heavy and so my back has started to complain again. Just the way I am carrying, it will naturally put stress on my back. I am all in the front and I feel like I now almost have a basketball in there as I feel her growing everyday.
My dreams have started to get real crazy again and I have trouble being comfortable at all at night even with the help of a pregnancy pillow. I am no longer sleeping through the night, not to pee which is a blessing but my body is just restless and my energy level has dropped even more.
Not going to lie today was a hard day and it's difficult to remember that this process is to be cherished.. It's hard especially when you feel so physically exhausted. If you have or are pregnant you will know the struggle and it honestly feels like I will never know what it's like to not be pregnant again. haha It's all so exaggerated but to a pregnant lady emotions run like a coursing river and adding constant physical pain to that... well I know I'm just a hot mess. I'm so thankful God has blessed me with a gracious husband. Lol
I know that this time will be over soon and I will miss the movement of my daughter inside my belly, the anticipation of wondering what she will look like and what kind of person she will be, and ultimately the newness of what it means to be a mother. I seriously cannot wait to be her mommy. :')
