A Long Overdue update.......30 week Pregnancy Recap!

How far along? Today I am 31 weeks! However, this update will be a 30 week recap, seeing as how my 31st week has just begun!

Total weight gain? As of week 30, I was up a total of 14-15 lbs

Maternity clothes? Yes and No. In terms of pants, I am living in my GAP 1969 skinny maternity jeans (LOVE!!!!) and various pairs of non-maternity black leggings. As for tops, I have a few maternity shirts but I'm still squeezing into some of my longer non-maternity tops :) Still able to wear my normal scrub pants at work, but tops are a different story!

Stretch marks? None, yet. Still trying to be diligent about using lotion/bio oil everyday. 

Sleep? Not too bad during week 30. The previous 3-5 weeks is a different story though......INSOMNIA!!

Best moment this week? Finishing up the sewing of baby boy's crib skirt and nursery drapes!

Miss anything? Wine, eating without getting heartburn and fitting into my non-maternity skinny jeans!

Movement? This little man doesn't stop moving!!! Constant kicks, rolls, etc. I LOVE t!!!

Food cravings? Tortilla chips with cheese! I seriously could live off these things!

Anything making you queasy or sick? Just that damn glucose drink that is used to test for gestational diabetes! Which BTW, I FAILED the 1 hour test! I was totally shocked, as was my OB. Just took the 3 hour fasting glucose today, but have yet to get the results. Keeping my fingers crossed I don't have GD!

Gender? Still a boy, I hope. Haven't had an ultrasound in a few months though...

Labor signs? I don't think so? FTM here...

Symptoms? Big belly, braxton hicks contractions, heartburn, and slight swelling of my feet after a long day at work.

Belly button in or out? In, but just about "flat"

Wedding rings on or off? On!

Happy or Moody? Mostly happy, but I do have my crabby/emotional moments.

Looking forward to?  Having a few days off for Christmas/New Years, Hubby's Christmas party, and organizing baby's nursery!
