24 Weeks (Baby Thrice)




How big is baby: According to my Baby Center email this week, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. 

Weight gain/loss: +1 lb from last week (weighed at doctor for total of 12.5lbs)

Stretch marks: None

Sleep: No sleeping complaints again

Diet/cravings/aversions: Pierogies...I've already eaten 1 of the 2 boxes we bought

Symptoms: Hot flashes again

Exercise: Nope

Gender: Still a surprise!  Lila goes back and forth now between the baby being a brother or a sister

Movement:  Lots of kicks and hiccups

The belly:  Moving higher and out

Worries:  After my appointment last week my worries have lessened! He told me I can be a little more active during the day and wants me to rest with my feet up at least 1-2 hours each afternoon.  Still no exercise allowed but I am allowed to go to the store and not buy more than one bag per arm.  Exciting stuff I tell you!

What I'm loving: Lifted restrictions for a few weeks:)  Baby Thrice has now reached viability!
