24 Weeks!


24 Weeks!

Week: 24
Baby: Baby Pease is the size of a grapefruit (seems small?) and the uterus is the size of a soccer ball (seems HUGE)- but she is growing a lot and her brain is developing so quickly. Also, the fetus can now survive (with serious medical help) outside of the womb...which is crazy!
Stretch Marks: No- which is hard to believe considering how big I am getting! 
Maternity Clothes: Not in these pictures posted above :) We had just gotten back from a walk...but most of the things I wear are maternity. I found a couple of great dresses at Target for the upcoming FL trip, which made me happy! 
Sleep: Sleeping really well lately...
Movement: Lots and lots of kicking...Justin has now felt her quite a bit and loves it every time! She is very active and it is reassuring to feel her moving around in there. 
Yummy: Veggies, Strawberries, Pears (still), Peaches, Pasta, Cookies, and Cereal!
Eww!: Nothing grossing me out lately....but I really miss Jimmy John's/lunch meat in general. I keep telling Justin that he is going to have to bring me some Jimmy John's at the hospital :)
Symptoms: Itchy belly and heartburn.
Mood: Excited and anxious to meet her...only 16 more weeks to go!
High of the week: Doctor Appointment went really well this week. They checked her heartbeat and said that she is strong and growing right on track. The doctor also reassured me about getting a big belly and said that I will just carry that way because I am so short...which made me feel better about the belly getting bigger by the day. So far...it is all staying in the belly...so hopefully that luck continues!
Low of the week: Stressful week at work with ISAT testing for my kiddos. Again, not pregnant related, but it was just a long week. 
Most looking forward to: Planning her nursery! Looks like we will be heading to the Oakbrook area in the next month, so I am looking forward to decorating over there and making our new place the perfect place for all three of us!
