How i'm feeling: Good... a little bit of anxiety & nerves, glad the we have a doc app tomorrow to help ease all of that.
How far along: 24 weeks
Size of the baby: About the size of an ear of corn (12 inches and a little over a pound)
Total Weight Gain/loss: not sure, doc app tomorrow
Maternity Clothes: rockin' my comfy jeans - just wore a maternity shirt (pictured) for the first time today. My regular shirts are still fitting pretty well, so I am saving the shirts I have for when I am bigger.
Gender: a GIRL!
Movement: yes... tons of it. She's very active! You can actually see her moving from the outside. It's truly amazing and one of the coolest things I have ever felt.
Sleep: Still hit or miss. Not getting much of it the last few nights, but still getting plenty overall.
What I miss: Taking hot baths, sushi, red wine and guinness... but all worth it. (this probably won't change) - I definitely missed sitting in the hot tub while we were in snowy Colorado.
Cravings: just fruit. It always sounds good.
Symptoms: Been dealing with cramping lately, scares me, but I keep telling myself it's normal. Still a little emotional too! Learning to not let the little things upset me.
Best moment this week: getting the curtains hung in the nursery, the crib and dresser delivered, and having more and more people feel her move. Every week new things are happening and it's very exciting.
Looking forward to: each day and week that comes. I love this little baby girl so much and with every passing week my worries fade a little about getting through with a healthy pregnancy. I definitely don't take anything for granted. We are feeling so blessed - and I enjoy seeing the little outfits our families find & hearing from other new mamas about all of the exciting milestones ahead.
