Week 24

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 24 Weeks

Size of baby: My little guy is the size of an eggplant. We went to the doctor on Monday and he weighs 1 pound 6 ounces.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I have gained 4 pounds of the 9 I ended up losing. Istill have not gained any weight! This is what 4 or 6 weeks I haven't gained anything?!

Maternity Clothes: I wear maternity bottoms. My shirts are a mainly my normal ones with a couple of maternity t-shirts mixed in. I also am wearing normal size dresses still. 

Gender: A little boy!

Movement: My little guy is very active at times! I love it!

Sleep: I have my moments when I sleep well and then moments where I don't.  I still wake up 1-3 times a night to go potty or eat a snack (when my sugar is low).

What I miss:  I think I am starting to miss honey buns and fresh cookies!

Cravings:  I have been eating quite a bit of cereal lately. I love me some Fruit Loops and my sugars don't go crazy. It's funny but ICANNOT eat cereal in the morning only at night as a before bed snack, otherwise my sugars are through the roof. I also have been eating a package of Frito's and Cheetos which are surprisingly low in carbs!! 

Symptoms: I get very uncomfortable on days where I am very busy at work.  I am busy all of the time, but some days are just worse than others.  

I think I have suddenly popped this past week. I noticed last Thursday my belly looked huge in the afternoon and sure enough Jose confirmed this when  he saw me on Saturday.  I love this stage. People finally are noticing I am pregnant and not just fat!!
