24 Weeks {Eggplant}



How far along? 24 Weeks
Total weight gain: 14 lbs so far.

Maternity clothes? YES! I have a few old tops that I can still wear, but for the most part it maternity!
Stretch marks? Not yet, Thank goodness! Hopefully they will stay far, far away.
Sleep: For the most part still sleeping pretty good.  I do wake up several times a night to relieve my bladder :) and to change to the other side.  Can't really just roll over anymore, it WAY more of a process. 
Best moment this week: While I had to do the dreaded glucose test this week, one of the best parts of the week did come from it.  After drinking SO much sugar from the glucola Scotty and I could see her moving from the outside.  It was little punches and it was so cool to watch!! She was hyped up on all the sugar! AND we ordered Aubree's nursery furniture this week!
Miss Anything? I glass of wine and my old clothes.  I never really thought I had the best wardrobe, but now that most of it doesn't fit I'm kinda sad I can't wear it anymore.  Can wait till Aubree is here and I can get back in shape! 
Gender: Girl
Movement:  Most definately! I'm starting to feel it more often and more firm movements.  Also got to see her moving from the outside. 
Food cravings: Mexican food and chocolate milk.  Not togther though. :)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still pasta.
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Leg cramps and stiffness.  I am constantly changing positions.  Sitting or sleeping.
Belly Button in or out? In, but getting closer to getting flat. :)
Looking Forward too?  Aubree's nursery furniture arriving and putting it together with Mr. Spouse AND a weekend visit to my parents house for my sweet nephews 1st birthday party!!!

How far along? 23 Weeks
Total weight gain: 14 lbs so far.

Maternity clothes? Most definately! They are WAY more comfortable!
Stretch marks? Not yet, Thank goodness! Hopefully they will stay far, far away.
Sleep: I wake up several times a night to relieve my preggo bladder and to re-adjust.  I get really stiff and achy. There is no more just "rolling over", it's more like pick your entire body up and rotate.  :)
Best moment this week: Feeling my sweet girl roll and kick. Just awesome! We also went to the doctor this week so we got to hear her sweet heartbeat on the doppler. 
Miss Anything? A nice glass of wine or margarita! A fun night out with friends at a local bar. And, my semi flat stomach. :) Hopefully it will be back in no time after my sweet itty bitty is here. I started doing pregnancy workouts and I have to say... they make me feel ALOT better and I kind of enjoy it.
Gender: Girl
Movement: Yep! I can feel her roll and kick! Love it! Scotty should be able to feel her real soon. 
Food cravings: nothing out of the ordinary. Just sweets and mexican food! I went through an entire bag of flammin hot cheetohs in just a matter of days!! oh boy! And chocolate milk!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Any type of pasta! YUCK!
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Feeling sluggish and very top heavy. It's only going to get worse, but my workouts are helping. Leg pain in my right leg {nerve like}.
Belly Button in or out? In, but getting closer to getting flat.  :)
Looking Forward too?  Ordering Aubree's nursery furniture and still putting together her room!
