At our last appointment I discovered that I have a pulled ligament in my right side which explains why I am always rubbing it!! I also found out that I have low blood pressure as well. So I have consent to eat Cup o' Soups and continue enjoying my salt!! Bad thing is that my sugar intake is being more regulated and I can't have my beloved Craisens any longer. I was also told that if I have fruit I need to have some kind of protein like peanut butter or cheese along with it! I have also made it past the 150 pound mark and just began to realize that the weight has gone to more than just my belly (I only noticed this after looking at some recent pics).
Jesse appears to be doing great! He's measured just about where he should be which is great. He is also still pointing down but has room to flip if he wants. Oh and I've felt him get the hiccups for the first time last week which was immediately followed by me getting the hiccups! We have most of his baby gear but have yet to tackle his bedroom, aka the office. So it looks like it may be a last minute scramble to get it set up!!
Next appointment is January 27, at which point I will be 8 months!!!
Week 31 of Pregnancy
As your baby's senses increase, his mommy's breathing room decreases.
Your Baby in Week 31 of Pregnancy
Weighing in at three-plus pounds and measuring 18 inches long, your baby is quickly approaching his birth length — though he's got to pack on another three to five pounds before D-day. Also developing at an impressive clip: your baby's brain connections (he's got to make trillions of them!). He's now processing information, tracking light, and perceiving signals from all five senses. He's also putting in longer stretches of sleep, which is why you're probably noticing more defined patterns of wakefulness (and movement) and rest (when he’s pretty still).

Your Body in Week 31 of Pregnancy
Chances are your diaphragm is feeling a little cramped these days. Okay, a lot cramped. That's because your uterus is pushing up against it (and all the other organs in there), crowding your lungs and making it more difficult for them to expand fully. The result: Your body is spare on air and will be until your baby drops near the end of pregnancy in preparation for birth. But don’t worry: Your baby is as happy as a clam because he’s getting his oxygen from the placenta.
