Symptoms: Sometimes I forget I am pregnant because I have been so lucky to not have any of the typical pregnancy symptoms or issues. No pains, sleeping great, feeling good, I really have no complaints!
Weight Gain: At my 24 week appt I had gained 10 pounds total. Still not showing a lot in my clothes but I can for sure see a pretty big bump when I lift my shirt up. I am at an odd stage though where I am not really fitting in my regular pants, but all maternity pants are still too big and falling off. Luckily I have 1 pair of my regular jeans that were larger in size that still fit great and I can still wear about all my normal tops but I have pulled out a few of the cute maternity tops too and I wear those as well.
Gender: I am excited for another boy! I will have to start doing some nursery post as I get the room ready and I think it is going to turn out so cute! I hope we (as in John) will paint it next weekend if I can get the room cleared out this week. It is going to be painted with stripes. Only thing I have really done is cleaned out some of the room and organized the tons of clothes we have! I am planning a DIY mobile project that I hope will turn out how I think it will. The only item I have bought so far is new crib bedding. .
Movement: I am so excited that I now feel lots of movement. It went from pretty much nothing to a lot in a 2 week period. When I turned 24 weeks I started feeling some popping flutters in my belly, then I started feeling quite a bit of activity at night when I was still in the recliner. John can feel it now and you can see movement just looking at my belly which is cool. At my 24 week appt he had the hiccups and I could hear them on the heartrate monitor. I can't wait to see him on ultrasound again.
Wow, I see the bump!!!!! I am so glad you are feeling more movement!
ReplyDeleteOh I can't wait to see the nursery! If your mobile involves circles (I have seen a lot on pinterest that do), we have this great circle cutter thing that is sooooo easy and I used it for Avery's party. Let me know!
Glad it is going well!!!!!
I have seen the mobiles on pinterest with the circles...those are cute! I am doing something similar but with tissue paper pom poms that seem like they would be easy to make.
