How Far Along: 24 Weeks
(You can check out my 24 week post from when I was pregnant with Jackson here.)
Size of Baby: (According to babycenter.com) 24 weeks: Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts her at about 1 1/3 pounds. Since she's almost a foot long (about the size of an ear of corn), she cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but her body is filling out proportionally and she'll soon start to plump up.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: At my 21 week appt. I totally forgot to pay attention
to how much I had gained total. At 17 weeks I was up 10 lbs. I go back to the Dr. on Monday, so I'll know better what my weight gain is then.
Maternity Clothes: Yes, all maternity clothes.
Gender: Its a GIRL!!! Still nameless, thanks to my husband!!
Movement: Yes, she's moving around quite a bit now, and I love it.
Food Cravings: Still no real food cravings.
What I miss: Nothing really at the moment, other than just being able to do normal things without feeling tired or out of breath.
Sleep: Having to get up at least once a night to use the restroom and just can't seem to get comfortable sometimes.
Symptoms: A growing belly, a few Braxton Hicks contractions here and there and some sciatic nerve pain.
Best Moment this week: Just feeling baby girl move more and more.
What I am looking forward to: Having a definite name for baby girl and getting her nursery ready. I'm also looking forward to my next Dr. appt. on Monday. I will then be going every 2 weeks at that point! I can't believe we're that far along already!
A little recap of Weeks 6-24. ☺

Girl names are the hardest! We didn't name Reese until we met her!
Love your shirt.... super cute! Can't wait to hear her name once you've picked it out!
cute shirt!!
Did you guys come up with a boy name before you knew the gender? We are trying to get one of each before we know. We are struggling with the boy name.
