31 Weeks

Today my baby is the size of...


4 naval oranges

The baby looks like this now:


This reminds me of a picture I took of my belly...here I noticed the belly got deformed. I am not pressing down on the left side of the belly even though my hand is there, it really is lopsided like that. I felt like it was a shoulder or part of the back that was sticking out of the right side. Maybe an elbow?

To my pregnancy gripes in my post below, I forgot to mention all the rude comments people make about pregnant ladies. while it might not be intentional, they are usually thoughtless comments. for example "are you having twins?" "are you sure you're not ready to pop now" "are you sure you can't get any bigger?". yes i have gotten all these and more. screw you!

My baby is certainly sitting very low which, while very uncomfortable at times, is great because I hope that means she doesnt have far to go in labor. Woo hoo! And while the tech confirmed she is head down now, the other way I can tell is that I have pelvic pain!

This feels like someone kicked you in the groin and your pelvic bone is bruised. It's not fun. Its fine sitting but once you get up and try to move, it hurts. It really feels like its bruised, or sore. I heard this is because the ligaments and maybe even pelvis are stretching in preparation.

She is still an active little girl. Can't wait to meet her!

I will spend the rest of the month finishing up the nursery and doing more preparation, like packing hospital bag and such.

Text from Jae yesterday: "I'm almost done. Saw a little girl walking with her dad. Made me smile in this hectic day". AWWWW!
