Week 29, 30, & 31

The past few weeks have been interesting. Dylan and I were both sick one weekend. Only Dylan was vomitting, but he was doing so all over mommy. Braxton Hicks contractions have started. And seem to happen all too often. I have strict orders now from the doctor to sit down, rest and drink a lot of water who once they start, but who can do that when they have a 3 year old at home to take care of? And as we begin our 32nd week I can now say that I vividly remember how uncomfortable sleep got during the last couple of months. I actually went out and bought a twin size foam mattress pad for my side of the bed and have started sleeping with extra pillows for support.

Hopefully over the next couple of weeks we'll get the baby's room to a point where I can share pictures with you all. It's coming out very cute, but there's still a few big things left to do. And as promised, here's a 31 week belly shot. Doctor has all good things to say. We're measuring perfectly, heartbeat is great and total weight gain so far is 18 lbs. We're feeling good, and she's moving around all the time. Both Dylan and Aaron compete to see who can feel the baby the most - it's very, very cute.

By the next time I write I'll be seeing the doctor on a weekly basis, how crazy is that. Our little girl Lulu's time in my belly is going by so quickly, however we are hoping she stays inside right up until her due date, May 9th!
