le bump / 24 weeks

24weeks.JPG

a soccer ball sized uterus with a little kicker inside.

progress & countdown: 24 weeks down & 106 days to go!

baby size: the length of an ear of corn.

food & drink: i have officially started sucking back a prenatal power smoothie within 30 minutes of waking. trying to keep a steady flow of nutrients and keep up with this growing baby!

bump stuff: the uterus is the size of a soccer ball and the baby inside is kicking like crazy. it’s getting wild…

highs: ordering accoutrements for his room.

lows: having to adjust my eating and exercising pattern to make sure i stay more balanced.

new developments: baby’s lungs are developing more and more. and baby is putting on the pounds! adding that fat every day.

meaningful moments & hormones & feelings: the kids have been saying goodnight to albert and including them in our bedtime routine and it is the best.

superficial stuff: skin is starting to itch right around the belly button so i am upping the cream application to keep the winter skin and pregnancy skin at bay.

looking forward to: the next midwife appointment!
