Weekly Updates:
How far along: 24 weeks – Viability!!!
Baby’s size: Ear of Corn – Your baby has caught up with an ear of corn in size and gained about 1/4 pound since last week. (Length: almost a foot.)
Sleep: Been rough. I can’t seem to find a comfortable position and when I do get some sleep I am always woken up so I can go to the bathroom. I have been stretching it out to about 10 hours from the time I go to bed to the time I get up. Hopefully within that I am at least getting 8 hours.
Maternity Clothes: Yep. Loving the stretchy pants!
Food Cravings: I am still craving sweets, but I have been trying to avoid to many of them since my weight is starting to get up there. Not in a concerning way, since I am pretty much right on target with my first pregnancy.
Food Aversions: Still no spicy. 🙁
Symptoms I have: Exhausted all the time. And I have been having lots of backaches. (Baby likes kicking towards the back). I have also been having small Braxton Hicks contractions and my pelvic bone is either loosening up or the baby is kicking/punching the cervix because it hurts!
Doctor’s Appointment: 3 weeks – Midwife on 3/4
Movement: Definitely feeling Sprout. See symptoms 🙂
Belly Button: Innie, barely. Darrell laughs that he can see the bottom of it without having to actually try.
Gender: Team Yellow!
What I’m looking forward to: Getting to 30 weeks. 6 weeks to go!
What I miss: Lately I have really been missing the ability to have a worry-free pregnancy. Especially once you hit viability.
