This past week did me in! In was super busy and I couldn't wait for the weekend. I had a doctors appointment on Thursday, and all went well. I have been having to check my blood levels 4 times a day, which is a hassle, but it is helping me stay completely regulated with my sugar levels and diet. I don't want a 12 pound baby!! So, she said I was looking good, and Zoe's heartbeat was 146... which she said was good. The little girl was moving all around, so we couldn't get her very still.

Yesterday, we took some maternity pics since my belly is really out now. We wanted to wait til after at least 30 weeks, so we did. A couple from our church has a business and took them for us... thank you Brewers! Of course when pregnant it's hard not to pick yourself apart... but I love the pics and they turned out great! Here are just a few that we took. There are many more that we will get to choose from soon!!! Week 31 pics above!



Details:

Baby: Weighs around 3ish pounds. Moves a lot, mostly at night when i am finally calm and not so busy. Likes to roll around during church and make me feel like I am going to pee my pants. Also, She tends to stick her butt out really far on one side, and it looks like my stomach is deformed at moments! ha!

Mommy: Weight gain is still between 10-12 pounds. Things are definitely adjusting and getting bigger though! ( Aka hips and belly!) Dealing with gestational diabetes, and still getting morning/night sickness frequently. Haven't been "sick" with the help of the meds, but still feel like it most evenings and early mornings if I haven't eaten fast enough. My hips hurt really bad when I sleep, so I flip flop all night. I have had a few emotional moments, but not too terribly bad. Overall, being in week 31, I must say that it is going fast. Some people love to be pregnant, which I do have those moments.... but overall, I am an end product kind of gal. I can't wait to meet her and see her! Me and my mom made part of her bedding this weekend, it's so cute!

Daddy: He is good. Patient for most moments that I have. Very supportive of me just wanting to veg out on a Friday night if I want. He is getting excited too. Since I can't eat the sweets very often, he eats a few for me. ;) He did great with maternity pics and was a trooper!

More maternity pics from the photo shoot to come...
