24 weeks

 

 

How far along? 24 weeks 

Total weight gain/loss: Let the gaining begin - up 2 pounds this week.

Maternity clothes? I got a couple of cute maternity shirts from Kohl's and they were super cheap with my 30% off coupon.  I am really loving my black leggings from Motherhood Maternity.  I purchased another pair this past weekend.  You can find them here.  They are AWESOME - I highly recommend them for anyone.

Stretch marks? No, I have been using Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion.  

Symptoms: My leg cramps have lessened in the past couple of weeks, which is wonderful.  I am just super uncomfortable sleeping.  I found a better way to use my snoogle, so that has been helping and I can still snuggle with my kitty cat too...win win.

Sleep: I am sleeping, but not great.  I am still waking up around 3AM.  Candy Crush and Bejeweled Blitz are my go to games on my IPad at those early AM hours.. 

Best moment this week: Our 3rd wedding anniversary and purchasing a crib and dresser for the nursery. 

Have you told family and friends: Yes

Miss Anything? Not this week.

Movement: Lots of movement.  She gave me a good hard kick at 2AM one morning and I was amazed.

Food cravings: Sweets 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Eating too much.

Have you started to show yet: YES!

Baby is a: GIRL! 

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

  

Wedding rings on or off? On
