Here's a shot of me a couple of weeks ago when I was about 22 weeks. Pretty soon I won't be able to see my toes! Hee hee.I saw this list on another blog, and thought it'd be fun to do it myself.
How Far Along: 24 Weeks
Size of Baby: 12 inches, 1 1/3 pounds
Total Weight Gain: Ha ha. So not sharing this one. I will tell you that the last time I went to see the doctor, he walked into the room and said, "That must've been some good turkey you ate on Christmas!" Don't get too mad at him. This will be my 3rd child that he has delivered, so we have a really good rapport, which definitely includes teasing.
Maternity Clothes: I just pulled them back out of storage and am kind of enjoying wearing them again. I know I will be so done with them in 4 months, though.
Gender: Unknown! We've tried twice. It seems this baby wants to surprise us.
Movement: This one is pretty wiggly, but it's very sporatic and in strange spots. It almost seems like it's facing my back and kicking that way sometimes. Korey did feel it kick for the first time this past weekend.
Sleep: I'm actually sleeping pretty good right now. I have a huge C-shaped pillow that wraps around my body so I don't get stiff. Korey "loves" having to share the bed with my big belly and large pillow!! (Do you hear the sarcasm?)
What I Miss: My Waistline and my Old Jeans
Cravings: Carbs. Give me carbs, any carbs!! (Refer back to weigh gain comment!)
Symptoms: No real symptoms right now, other than being tired. I'm enjoying that because the 1st trimester of this one was rough.
Best Moment this Week: When I realized that I am now past the halfway point. And, actually seeing the baby's movements on the outside of my belly. Oh, and I can't forget that I had 2 people tell me how tiny I am. LOVE THAT!!
you look great! i cant believe you haven't been able to learn the gender; that's so funny! it seems like this baby already has a huge personality!
