31 Weeks.. Dress that actually fits.. where art thou??

Well.. Lil' Man is the size of a coconut and I'm wishing I could have some Malibu Rum right now... Some how I don't think the combo is a good idea though unfortunately. Baby H finally decided to go head down, thank goodness.. Now I am bake to planning for my natural delivery! We have been working with an amazing doula, Lindsey Monroe  for the past few weeks, in hopes that we will be able to have a natural delivery. She will also be doing our maternity and Baby's newborn photography. 

Note to all preggos out there.. mentally prepare yourself for a day of frustration when searching for a dress/outfit for a special occasion.. especially your baby shower. Gone are the days of going to mall, looking through the racks and finding something instantly. Lord have mercy on my round belly and swollen boobs. 

I am however really looking forward to the baby shower this weekend.. So excited to see friends and family that I haven't seen in a while, eat some amazing food, and organize all of the baby gifts that we get for Baby H!  


How far along: 31w 6d
Stretch marks: Seems to be getting a little better with the coco butter… C’mon miracle lotion!
Sleep: not so much.
Best Moment: Finally finding a dress for the shower… Taking a tour of the hospital L&D unit, and meeting with Dr. C, my fave OB and found out Baby H is head down!! Fingers crossed that he stays that way!
Worst Moment: Shopping for 8+ hours trying to find a dress, and ending up ordering one online…. Fail. & as if my lovely tiger stripes weren’t bad enough.. I have been so itchy on my belly that I feel like I have friggen Poison Ivy!
Miss anything: Being able to fit into normal people clothes… slightly nostalgic of my skinny girl days walking through the mall and looking at all of the cute clothes that I couldn’t fit in even with the best shape wear in the world.
Movement: That’s affirmative.
Cravings: Pretty much drooling over the menu for the baby shower that I will soon be able to enjoy!
Anything making you queasy: Meat
Showing: Yea… Adam has officially begun calling our baby a basketball under my clothes.. and tells me not to dribble him too hard.
Labor signs: Nope.. but baby is head down! I’m so ready to be done being pregnant…. Hoping he comes in the beginning of April instead of the 21st..
Belly button in/out: Out.
Things you're looking forward to: Baby shower, amazing food, getting lots of amazing baby things, rearranging our room to accommodate the cradle that my awesome sister has given me that our uncle built for her when she had my nephews, getting to see lots of family and friends that I haven’t seen in a while and many other things!
