31 weeks
*How far along?: 31 weeks and 2 days
*Total weight gain: I think around 31 pounds on the “official” Dr scale.
*How big is baby?: The size of a squash, anywhere from 15.2 – 16.7 inches and 2.5-3.8 pounds. At my Dr’s appointment at 30 weeks 6 days I was measuring 33 weeks. Dr. H said he thinks this baby will be bigger than 6 pound J was.
*Sleep?:My carpal tunnel is killing me in both hands and I wake up with numb arms every day.
*Best moment this week?: I had a great Dr’s appointment on Wednesday. Dr H. asked how I feeling and I responded “fat and puffy.” His response was “maybe you’re pregnant, you have a good reason.” It made me smile and realize this all temporary and for a really good cause!
*Movement?: Plenty, especially at night. Baby Girl also loves the sweets and they make her dance.
*Food cravings?: Nothing crazy, just more food than I would like to eat.
*Labor signs?: No, thankfully.
*Belly button in or out?: FLAT and the top is starting to pop out a little. Something that never happened with J’s pregnancy.
*What I miss: Not feeling as wide as a Mack truck.
*What I’m looking forward to: Moving into our new house! Hopefully 6 weeks away! <— this is still the best answer.
UPDATE: I love Twitter for this reason. My blog automatically publishes to Twitter & right after I published this post I get this tweet back from Liz Lange.
Holy cow! I knew she followed me on Twitter but had no idea she read my pregnancy updates. For those non-pregnant folks out there, Liz is a designer who makes the best maternity line ever for Target! The dress I’m wearing in this picture is Liz Lange
I’m a little star-struck.



















Wow – your look Great Joanna! I wish I thought about doing a weekly post like this earlier in the game – it looks like fun and a great way to look back and track with baby girl when she grows up.
Seeings as I am sitting at 37 weeks right now I’m guessing its a little late
How exciting about Liz Lange… star struck? I dont blame you… but I think we can agree you do look great in that Dress

Thanks Ajira, you’re so sweet!!
You look so pretty!! Hope the next few weeks are easy on you
Thanks Sara
Me too, lol!
That is SO cool and you look so amazing. I know you dont feel that way but want to hear something funny? When we talk I still imagine you all skinny and shizz. Why is that? Like I am in denial that you are pregnant or something.
