Big Mama In Da House!

How far along? 31 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: +25-ish lbs
Maternity clothes?  Is it bad that I've almost outgrown maternity clothes? 
Sleep: Better - still waking up every 2-3 hours but I feel like I'm sleeping more soundly.  I have learned that Christopher doesn't like when I sleep on my right side.
Best moment this week: symptom-free from previa (knock on wood)
Movement: Still regular and much, much stronger.  These babies know how to kick!
Food cravings:  I just satisfied it - fried chicken and a vanilla chocolate chip Blizzard.  So bad and yet so good.
Gender: Still a boy and girl!
Labor Signs: No but I think I have had some Braxton Hicks.
Belly Button in or out?  Ding!  Turkey's done.  It's out. 
What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach, shirts that aren't automatically belly shirts (see picture below),  not waking up at 2 am with heartburn from hell, being able to climb the stairs without sounding like I have asthma and the #1 thing I miss?  Not waddling like a duck!
What I am looking forward to: Meeting the twins!
Weekly Wisdom: I can't do it all.  Hell, I can't even do half!
Milestones: Making it this far.

Here's a belly pic:

Too cute. Ugh I don't miss that heartburn. Not too much longer now. Good job on your weight gain. On D-Day I was up 42 lbs.

If Christopher is on the right I can see why the little guy wouldn't like it much. Hang in there C, in another 5 weeks or so you'll have all the space your little heart desires.

Hope you're even a bit more rested with your extra 2 days at home.
You look fantastic!

Best wishes,
Anna
