31 weeks! (I'm a little behind posting this)

63 days to go!

Here's your 31 week update:
Baby's size: This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. She weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt.
Baby's development: She can turn her head from side to side, and her arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath her skin. She's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.


Best of the week: Going on the hospital tour! It made everything seem so real!
 
Worst of the week: Trying to sleep on my side. Frequent trips to the bathroom.

Side Effects: Wishing I could get paid for how many times I go to the bathroom a day! :)

Cravings: Sweets!

Anticipating: My baby shower in Tuscaloosa with college friends!
