31 Week Update!

How big is Benjamin this week? The size of an Pineapple!!  At 15.2-16.7 inches and 2.5-3.8 pounds!

Due Date: April 9th, 2013

Weight Gain: 19 pounds... no weight gain again this week!

Symptoms: Heartburn like crazy... Having a prescription filled and hope that will help!

Cravings:  Truffle fries from Hubbell and Hudson... YUMMMM!!!

Food Aversions:  Anything too spicy because it causes heartburn... not worth it!

I am loving:  We tried the 4D ultrasound again yesterday and finally got a glimpse of Benjamin's sweet face!  He was still hiding behind his little knee, but for a quick second we got a sneak peek.  I posted the cute little photo below!

I miss:  A full nights rest without a restroom break.

I am looking forward to: The rocker/glider will be delivered this week!!!  Super excited to put the final touches on his room over the next few weeks!

I'm spazzing about:  Ben is still in the breech position... :(  We have our 32 week appointment next week and we will discuss options and what to expect in the coming weeks if he fails to move... Our prayer is that he moves, head down so this won't be an issue.

Best thing about this week:  Seeing our sweet baby boy yesterday at the ultrasound!  He was quite playful, kicking and moving his fingers and toes!  So cute to see!  We are so in love!!!

Milestones: Ben is going through major brain and nerve development this week.  His eyes are developing more and his irises now react to light!  Also, all five of his senses are in working order!!  

Movement: This weekend he had the hiccups and it was the sweetest thing ever!  I felt bad for him since he couldn't hold his breath to make them go away... they didn't last too long, but I was able to capture a video of it!  They were so strong my entire belly would twitch!  Love love love his kicks, jabs, rolls, hiccups and stretches!  Can't get enough of them!

It's a...: BOY!!!!  Benjamin Lawrence Ingram!!!

Exercise: Went for a great walk this weekend!  It was way to pretty to be inside.

Diet: Umm...  nothing new here.

31 Weeks!

Ben finally let us see a little bit of his sweet face.  He is still breech and facing my spine, but our fabulous ultrasound tech worked her magic and was able to get this sweet photo for us!
