Maternity Monday

How far along? 31 weeks.... chugging right along! Next week is a big "goal" week because the risk of long term effects from premature birth is practically non-existant. Of course, we want at least another 2-4 weeks past that ideally so right now my brain is telling me to "just make it to 35 weeks" and then every week thereafter is icing. :)
Total Weight Gain: Around 33 pounds
Maternity Clothes: Many of them are too small but yes, it's all I wear.
Sleep: Last night I called in my hubby to help me make a wedge. If I even so much as think about laying horizontally I get terrible acid reflux. The amount of pillows I'm using to sleep with is absurd.
Best Moment This Week: Today was Dan's birthday and we had a lot of fun as a family. We went to a children's museum, had a nice home-cooked dinner, ate cake & played with N's toys. I know it's going to be great having two more babies, but it sure is nice to soak up this time with just the three of us while we can!
Movement: They are more in the changing positions/squirming around stage rather than kicking and punching. I assume it's getting squished!
Gender: Girls!
Labor Signs: So far, so good!
Belly Button In or Out: In but getting flatter
What I miss: Being able to sleep without acid reflux.
How I'm feeling: Really, really sore.
What I'm looking forward to: Excited for our ultrasound tomorrow to see how big they are getting!
Weekly Wisdom: Repeats to self: It's all worth it, it's all worth it... :)
Milestones: Another week bites the dust... babies still cooking away!!!

Please excuse my face. I think I look terrified because I'm wondering "omg, how much bigger can I get?!"
