31 Weeks

Today marks 31 weeks pregnant and while I’m overcome with emotion, I’m also experiencing the not so fun joys of pregnancy. I’m starting to become more uncomfortable at night, sleeping on my side and all the pressure is weighing down on my hip. My acne is getting worse on the side of my face and to top it off, I haven’t gotten a decent nights sleep since the beginning of my third trimester.

As I sit hear at 2am, writing and possibly eating a Drumstick ice cream cone, I need to remind myself of all the good things. Goldie has been much more active lately with her kicks and rolls. She even loves music! I’ve even started to turn music on and place my phone near my belly for her to hear.

Weight gain hasn’t been much of an issue and since becoming pregnant, I’ve only gained a total of 18 pounds to date.

Overall, I've stayed really happy through this pregnancy. Even on difficult days, I am really grateful that I’ve been pretty healthy. Now the nursery is complete! She has a drawer full of onesies and amazing goodies we’ve received from friends and family. Now, I'm just growing impatient as the days get close.
