How Far Along: 31 Weeks
Baby Nickles Weight: According to Dr. Lutich, Annabelle is just over 4lbs as of today... and measuring at least a week ahead of schedule. If she keeps growing at this rate and I carry to term (40 weeks) I am looking at a 8.5 or 9 lb baby. YIKES!
Baby Nickles Length: 16.5 inches
Baby Nickles Heartbeat: 141
Best Moment This Week: This should really be retitled "Holy Crap, I Am Going To Be A Mom Soon Moment!" We are so close to finishing the nursery, which for some reason is a bit scary to me. As I was sitting in the rocker Sunday night I was thinking that we are actually going to be parents to a little helpless baby in just a matter of weeks. Yes, we planned for a baby and yes we have been talking about her arrival for a long time. It's hard to explain why this is just now sinking in.
Movement: I think that Annabelle is going to be a night owl as she likes to dance around in my stomach in the middle of the night. She has grown so much, it's much less kicking and punching but rather readjusting her position moves my entire stomach. I can even see her arms and legs move from one side of my stomach to the other.
What I am looking forward to: Maybe we will have a July 4th baby?! I am definately looking forward to that!
Symptoms: Swelling, heartburn, slight hip discomfort at night and sciatica
