Thirty-One Weeks


This week: Wolverine Baby is a little over 16  inches long and weighs more than three pounds. That's about the size of a pineapple.  

Development: This week, all five senses continue to get sharper.  Her irises now react to light, and her brain and nerves are doing some major developing.

Are you craving anything? Still chocolate milk and ice cream.  I could actually go for some chocolate frozen yogurt right now...

Is there any food that turns you off? The thought of anything spicy makes me cringe because of the heartburn and acid reflux that I know will ensue.


How do you feel? Large, uncomfortable, and graceless.  Trying to get out of bed or off the couch is just ridiculous.

How is your sleep? When I sleep, it is wonderful.

Most surprising thing you've noticed or experienced: Probably the sense of overwhelming, "I do NOT want to be in this room when I deliver!!" I felt when touring the c-section room at the hospital.  While I am very, very grateful to Elizabeth for the tour, I did not like that room.  Until going in there, a c-section didn't really concern me.  It wasn't ideal, but I wasn't afraid.  And now, I wouldn't say I'm afraid per se.  I just really, really don't want to do that.

Something you're surprised you haven't noticed or experienced: Nope.

Favorite/most comfortable article of clothing: Anything that fits.

How is Ray doing? Good.  He was pretty engaged at the tour and asked many questions.  And he's been doing a good job of trying to make me laugh about things when I'm scared or anxious.
