24 Weeks!

How far along? 24 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Up 5lbs
Baby's Fruit Size: Cantaloupe

Sleep: Sleeping too much! I feel tired if I can't sleep in, oh well better get my sleep in now while I can
Best moment this week: Celebrating the New Year. 2013 is your year baby girl, and we can't wait to meet you!

Miss Anything? Not right now.
Movement: Yes, not a ton but pretty regular movement, which is exciting!
Food cravings/aversions: Trying to get back on track with my eating. Lots of salads and trying to eat more protein.
Symptoms: Kicks! Heartburn, and fatigue.

Signs of Labor: Not really though I have been having a few Braxton Hicks


Looking forward to: seeing you again on the U/S soon!

Development:
In your 24th week of pregnancy, your baby is filling out. Part of your weight gain goes straight to helping him gain weight, too. Since he's still on the scrawny side, his skin wrinkles on his body, but he looks like a miniature version of what you'll see on delivery day. His face has formed, ears are in place, and eyes are complete (although his lids are still closed). He has eyelashes, fingernails, and may be growing hair. Rapid eye movements (REM) are beginning, too.
