Week 31

Dear Sweet Pea,

Today I am 30 weeks along, so 3/4 of the way there and only 10 weeks to go! I still can't believe how fast its going by!
This week you'll be about 3.5 pounds and around 18 inches (40 cm) long. Your lungs are maturing quite a bit, and you can pee now! You might even be able to see, although its pretty dark in there. You can recognize several voices by now, and respond to sounds and light near my belly.

I am doing well, but am battling another cold right now :( The aches and pains of the 3rd trimester are definitely here! Its getting more and more uncomfortable to work, where I'm standing all the time, and its getting harder to sleep as well. Finding a position that is comfortable for any length of time is no easy feat! I feel tired quite often, and sometimes feel breathless since you're taking up some of my lung space!

In other news, I have now secured someone to be my replacement while I stay home with you for a little while. At this point I'm planning to take 7 months off, but we'll just see how things go. Its a huge relief to have found someone that I trust to treat my clients while I'm away. Her contract got signed this past Tuesday, so its official now, even though I had her picked out a few weeks ago.

And now for the 30 week belly picture!
