How far along: 24 weeks, 4 days
Days until due date: 108
Baby: About the size of a cantaloupe with a heart rate of 154 beats/min (had an OB visit this week). His kicks are getting strong enough to see on the outside at times and Scott was even able to feel a few. Baby had the hiccups for the first noticeable time the other day - what a funny feeling!
Total weight gain: 7lbs. Oh boy, here we go.
Total belly growth: 7". There's no hiding it anymore.
What I miss: Feeling comfortable in jeans. Even with the belly band holding my fly open, I'm pushing the limits of denim these days.
Cravings: Mmm, chocolate. And fruit. And cookies. And just food in general.
Symptoms: I'm tired ALL the time. It sure is hard work growing a baby. I'm very grateful for a nurse's schedule where I can work hard for three days a week and then have the other four to rest and recover.
What Scott’s been up to: Scott has spent much of his recent free time investigating housing options for us. We're hoping to upgrade soon to a place with room for another family member, so Scott's been analyzing our financial situation and planning for the future. Such a good husband/father! However, he's ditching us for a work conference in Florida next week. Tough life he lives.
