31 weeks preggo

How far along? - 31 weeks 
Total weight gain: -Had a good doctor's appt. for once. Asked specifically about y weight and a different midwife told me I should get a pat on the back.  I only gained 1 pound since last visit two weeks ago and I am holding steady at about 143 pounds. 
Maternity clothes? - Yes but I am trying to get creative with dressing the bump because I am starting to embrace it. 
Stretch marks? - none that I can see (although I might have them on my breasts?) 
Sleep: actually pretty good although there are moments of insomnia and I have started waking up to use the bathroom at around 3 am. 
Best moment this week: I finally got to feel hiccups! They were strange but kind of fun at the same time. And, I had a prenatal massage which was heavenly. 
Food cravings:  wanted a lot of sugar this week - had to keep it in check
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope
Gender: Boy (Got to spend time with a friend's two-year-old this weekend and it made me so excited to have a little guy of my own. I just feel like boys love their mama's so much and they are on-the-go constantly. 
Symptoms: If I sit down on the couch, my back hurts. If I stand or sit on a hard bench, for some reason it's better for me.  I did have a little bit of RLP this past weekend (or I pulled a muscle in my abdomen) 
Belly button in or out: I guess it's in but it is basically flat
Wedding rings on or off: I just put them back on yesterday. (They were falling off before this)
Looking forward to: in-laws coming to visit this weekend, work baby shower on Saturday, and just counting down the weeks til baby boy gets here. I was told I need to enjoy this time and I plan on doing just that.
