Week 24

Highlights

Week :: 24

Size of baby :: 10.5-11.8 inches, from head to toe. (Baby is about 1 pound according to the sonogram!)

Weight Gain/Loss :: -5.0 lbs. total

Maternity Clothes :: All dress clothes

Sex :: KNOWN

Movement :: Baby moves around a lot in the evenings - from the time I get home from work till I'm laying down to go to sleep. It makes it difficult to sleep sometimes.

Sleep :: Waking about two or more times a night. I'm very uncomfortable at night (toss and turn) and need to get up often to use the restroom.

Symptoms :: I've had a lot of lower back pain (sciatic nerve) and leg cramps.

Food Aversions :: I still don't have an appetite and nothing sounds good or delicious.

Food Cravings :: Citrus fruit and pistachios.

Best Moment of this Week :: Going out for a nice dinner and a concert with my mom - we've gone to the Lorie Line Christmas Extravaganza for over 12 years now. Baby loved the music and danced all night!

Looking Forward To :: My birthday next week - no gifts this year, but hopefully making a major purchase (crib) for the nursery.
