I am now 31 weeks, so here is my 30 week update.
Check out the week 29 update Here:
How far along: 30 weeks
How big is baby: Three pounds and the size of a head of cabbage.
Weight gain: 19 Pounds
Sleep: This week sleeping has been terrible. I used the pregnancy pillow,but it didn’t really help. I thought that the end of this pregnancy and being in the third trimester was finally catching up with me,but I found out that I had a sinus infection. So, not being able to breath well wasn’t helping. Once I got medicine, this week, I have been back to sleeping great so that is a relief.
Diet/Cravings/Aversions: Nothing to report here. Peanut Butter cups from Aldi and Walmart, Grapefruit, Cuties, mexican food, spicy food, sushi(cooked rolls), and green smoothies have been hitting the spot lately.
Movement: Lots more movement, she doesn’t kick that much,but she does like to adjust herself a lot which freaks Grant out because you will be able to feel a limb moving or poking out more so that with your hand you can feel it.
What I’m loving: Modern medicine and getting good deals at an annual consignment sale here in Huntsville. I also got my hair cut this weekend, and I got to see Kira, Andrew, and Alana as well as my parents which was wonderful.
Symptoms: This week I had a lot of drainage, sinus pressure, coughing, but found out those are all from a sinus infection rather than pregnancy. I can tell that sometimes when she stretches out my stomach is a little bit tighter, but most of the time it doesn’t feel stretched yet to where it is uncomfortable.
What I’m looking forward to: My parents are coming for a visit this week which gave us a great excuse to really clean and organize our place as well as a little extra help on getting things done. It is so wonderful getting to host in a house. More room to spread out,etc.
Thoughts: This are starting to get down to the wire, we are writing up our birth plan, got accepted to a good pediatrician, and grilled my OBGYN and being more and more happy that we picked her.
Let me know if you have any questions!

i love the baby moving around! my mom used to say I would kick her in the ribs, has your darling done that yet?
Ashley,
At the last appointment, the gyno confirmed that she was head down, and since then I have felt a lot more nudges in the ribs, but nothing painful just more surprising. She just like to stretch out and poke her limbs out to my right side more than actually kicking these days. 🙂
