Baby Bennett Update

Baby Bennett Update

24 Weeks!

How far along? 24 Weeks!

Total weight gain: 14 lbs, last time we checked. 

Maternity clothes? I wore my first maternity/hand me down shirt last night!

Stretch marks? Thankfully not any yet. 

Sleep: Sleep, I love you. Still sleeping a lot. Bedtime is around 8:30-9:00 and I'm up at 5 to work out almost every morning.

Best moment this week: Waking up on Monday morning to a serious belly. They're not kidding when they say it comes up over night!

Miss anything? Being able to wear anything and everything in my closet.

Movement: More and more movement everyday it feels like! He's finally kicking hard enough to make Brandon gasp every time he feels it. :)

Food cravings: Water. I have been so thirsty this week!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Meat not fully cooked.

Gender: Boy! :)

Labor Signs: Oh no. Not yet.

Symptoms: I've been pretty tired this week and have had some back pain. And indigestion every other day.

Belly Button in or out? In.

Wedding rings on or off? On.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Oh my. This week I've been all over the place. Love you, Brandon! :)

Looking forward to: Our first at home day care interview today! Got my mom questions and I'm ready to do some grilling!

Earlier this week Brandon and I watched the DVD from the ultrasound. 

It's so fun to see what he's doing in there even though I can't see him and can't feel him.. he's wiggling around in there!

He's a still shot of our little monkey hanging out upside down. 

Looks like he's got his momma's long scrawny legs. ;)

I've finally hit the point of not fitting into much of anything anymore. If I didn't have to worry about bottoms I would be completely fine! But, unfortunately I can't only wear shirts. I've heard Old Navy Maternity section has great prices and cute clothes.. so I'm going to hit that up this weekend! In the mean time.. I will continue to replay over and over this scene from the Grinch.

And the next time I say this when I'm not pregnant...

I will remember that at least everything fits and I could have a belly the size of a soccer ball! :)
