Wednesday, Oui: Postcards from the Bump




How far along? 24 Weeks! 16 Weeks left!!

Total weight gain/loss: As of my 24-week check-up (yesterday afternoon) 17 pounds! According to my doctor I'm right on target and doing great with weight gain! (although, it did hurt a little bit when I was weighed.)

Baby's size? According to the websites I follow he's as long as an ear of corn and just over 1 pound!

Maternity clothes? Oh hell yes. Begrudgingly. We're remodeling the closets in our bedroom so I had to clear out all my "pre-pregnancy" clothes and temporarily move them to another room last weekend. I cried. True story. They were all so little!

Stretch Marks? None yet but I'm on the lookout. Crossing my fingers I'll escape them!

Sleep: Yes, please! Sleep is not going too well.

Best moment this week: Aaron saw Alien kicking... from the outside. We laughed that he has bicycle legs like Daddy!



Movement: All over, twisting and turning. I'm pretty sure he sucker punched me the night I ate chili.

Food cravings: Ice cream

Gender: Boy! Boy! Boy!

Labor Signs: None yet but, I have had a few Braxton Hicks. They aren't really painful; just uncomfortable.

Belly Button in or out? This close (-) to being out.

What I miss: Caffeine, being able to see my feet, a good night of sleep

What I am looking forward to: Kissing my baby on his cute little head. I'm so in love with him that I'll probably just eat him right after I deliver him. Gobble him right up. Some mothers eat their young so it won't be all that unusual.

Milestones: I'm at 24 Weeks, which is considered viability (if something were to happen there is a chance my little man would survive outside of the womb) I'm glad to reach this milestone but content to keep cooking him.

Other baby updates? I'm going to see my family this weekend! I'm sure they'll be loving on the baby bump :)

16 more weeks. That's CRAZY! Oui?
