Week 24

How far along? 24 weeks!!

Total weight gain/loss: at my last appointment I had gained 4 pounds for the total pregnancy! Pretty good! I have another appointment this week!

Maternity clothes? Just some maternity shorts...I can still wear my jeans but they're getting tight...who wants to wear jeans in July anyway? Still wearing my same tops, skirts and dresses....scrubs are still getting tighter and I refuse to buy anymore until I REALLY need them. I did invest in some maternity underwear...comfy and they REALLY help my back pain!!

Stretch marks? haha none from baby..well maybe a few from baby..

Sleep: Sleep? What's that? I get up about 4-5 times a night to pee...and toss and turn. I usually wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning and am wide awake for two hours before falling back to sleep...just to be awoken by the alarm 20 mins later!!

Best moment this week: Daddy (Lee) could actually see my stomach moving!!

Movement: moving all around...all the time!! I love that I can finally feel him!

Food cravings: watermelon, popsicles, and diet coke..

Symptoms: heartburn, back pain, pelvic pain, stomach pain...baby is getting so big!

Gender: ALL BOY!!! :)
Labor Signs: nope! Keep baking, please!

Belly Button in or out? Innie.. i hope it stays that way!

What I miss: not getting out of breath when I go up and down stairs...bending over without back pain or straining...ugh!

What I am looking forward to: 24 week appointment!

Weekly Wisdom: Don't stay on your feet any longer than necessary..give your body time to relax!

Milestones: nursery cleaned out! Almost ready for painting... Not me of course :)
