| Baby is the size of a coconut |
Hello everyone! This week’s update is for our 31st week. It’s been a pretty enjoyable week with Honeybee’s Awards Day and her schoolmates’ graduation ceremonies. Our niece also turned 13 and I can’t believe how quick that happened! I wasn’t able to join as baby A. developed a fever the day prior and I thought it wiser to keep her away from kids until we reached a full 48 hour fever free mark.
Week 31: 6-12 June 2019
How far along: 31 weeks
How big is baby: the size of a coconut. He or she measured 3 pounds, 4 ounces yesterday.
Mommy’s Weight: 171 pounds.
Gender: Unknown (Team Green)
Events of this week: Honeybee’s Awards Ceremony, New Hair Do, My Niece Turned 13, and my 32 week scan
Prepping for: Niece’s HS graduation. Bug and Honeybee’s last day of school. Father’s Day
Symptoms: Back pain, Braxton Hicks, fatigue, thirsty
Baby/Maternity purchases: None
Stretch marks: Yes
Belly Button: Almost out.
Food cravings: Icees, Fruit, Icecream
Food aversions: Not really
Sleep: Not too much. The baby starts moving around 10 and proceeds to give a “concert” for about 40 minutes with encores every 15-20 minutes.
Movement: All day long and I love it!
Best Moment(s) of the Week: I swam the length of the pool! Yay!
Not so great moment: I had an experience at the last scan where I believe a mother received news of a loss of her pregnancy. I blogged about it here. Prayers for her and her family.
