Today I am 31 weeks; only 9 more weeks to go!
However, when most people hear how far along I am, they say something really stupid/annoying such as: "Wow, you still have a long way to go."
Yes, the middle of October SEEMS like a long time, but it's actually only 63 days. That's not very long at all! I can remember counting down for our wedding, and the last 100 days FLEW by ... which, I am suspecting will be the same with these last 63 days before my boy makes his appearance. Yes, I'm sure the end will drag due to increasing uncomfort, but luckily, I have so much on my plate in these next 63 days, I know it'll be a quick wait in the end.
The Babycenter.com 31 week update:
This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
It's crazy that he is so big in there. I feel movements a lot (and some just feel plain WEIRD), but it doesn't "seem like" he takes up THAT much room inside me! I still can't even believe there is a baby in there! It's going to be so crazy when he is born and I'm holding a little human being.
