How far along? 24 weeks!
Baby: Right now the baby has gained approximately 4 ounces within the last week. That would explain why his kicks are starting to feel more powerful. He's also about the length of an ear of corn, nearly a foot long. It's really crazy how big he's getting!
I learned this week that Danny was over 9 pounds and 24 inches long. Talk about a BIG baby! I guess that could explain gaining weight a little quicker than I'd expected. Maybe he's just big.

Stretch marks? Maybe one or two, but I can't really tell yet.
Weight gain? about 20 pounds. I'm a little over where I'm supposed to be according to the doctor. It definitely explains why I've felt so "fat" for the last while. I blame it on the cruise. Currently, my diet is basically fruit, LOTS of veggies, and whole grain stuffs--which is funny cuz except for on the cruise, that what it's been most of the time.
Sleep: I sleep pretty well, but I still wake up feeling pretty tired and sometimes sore. Danny bought me a body pillow for our anniversary, which will be amazing when it gets here tomorrow!
Movement: All the time! He's seriously so wiggly! He's starting to develop a movement pattern, which is basically that he moves all the time, and seems to hit the same places on my belly. :)
Cravings: Nothing out of the ordinary. Just trying to make sure I don't eat too much.
Symptoms: Achy feet and lots of baby movement are my two main symptoms right now.
Wedding ring on or off? Still on! :)
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy! I'm so excited to be a mom--it's just getting closer and closer! I've gotten a few little baby gifts, and it's been so fun to imagine what he'll look like.
Looking forward to: Spending the summer in the pool and getting the baby room finished. :D
Things to Stress About: Gaining too much weight too fast...I'm excited to be back in the pool!
How is the Husband Doing? Danny has felt this baby move a few times now, which is really cool! We had so much fun on the cruise! We also got to visit the hospital where we'll have the baby. It's becoming so much more real. We're excited! I can't believe we're over half way through!
That's all for now!
That's all for now!
