6 months pregnant already... where has the time gone?!
Along: 24 weeks! Baby 2 will be here before we can even blink. I swear time goes by SO fast lately.
Size of Baby: Baby 2 weighs more than a pound and is the size of a standard letter. He can hear all kinds of noises and recognize voices. Hopefully he will be used to Owen's squeals when he is born! (Man that kid can squeal!) Baby 2 will gain about 6 ounces each week for the next couple of weeks.
Gender: BOY!!! We are so excited to have two boys. The bond between brothers is so special, and I'm sure will be even more special being as they will only be 14 months apart. Jimmy and I have already started saying 'the boys' and 'our boys.' I LOVE it!
Sleep: I sleep like a rock and haven't even had to start getting up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night yet.
What I Miss: An occasional alcoholic drink. We had happy hour last night with some friends and I couldn't indulge... only a few more months though. :)
Cravings: Right now I really want some Chick-Filet nuggets... good thing I convinced Jimmy to go there for lunch while we are out running errands today! I also crave ice cream, which I did with Owen as well. Sweets are my weakness. Thankfully I am doing really well with my weight. I started a few pounds heavier than I did with Owen and I've not yet reached the weight I was with him at 24 weeks. I think I've only gained about 10 pounds so far.
Symptoms: I get tired sooner and easier, but other than that, nothing else bothers me. This pregnancy is super easy. Besides the obvious growing belly, I wouldn't even realize I'm pregnant.
Best Moment this Month: Jimmy can now feel baby 2 moving around! It's so special for him. I also love hearing his heart beat each time I go to the doctor. They say the same thing each time - very strong heart beat!
Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mothers out there! I'm so excited for my first real Mother's Day. Jimmy has some special things planned!
Love,
Judi
