Caleb is 24 weeks! 6 months already?!!


How far along? 24 Weeks
Baby is the size of a: Cantaloupe 
Total weight gain: 9 lbs
Stretch marks? Only on my boobs so far!
Sleep: Restless, I've been tossing and turning my hips have been hurting like crazy even though I've been using a snoogle pillow. I've had a lot of hip pain the last few weeks. I've tried maternity yoga I hope that will start helping. Of course I've been getting up about 3 times a night to use the potty too so that doesn't help either.
Best moment this week: Getting started on the nursery!  I painted on tuesday and put my tree decal up I think it turned out really nice!
Miss Anything: Miss being able to walk up steps with out feeling winded!
Food cravings: Carrots, red grapes, sugar snap peas, and milkshakes :) (Still the same this week!)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: Heartburn :/, Fatigue, shortness of breath and normal aches and pains, and round ligament pains. 
Wedding rings on or off? All my jewelry is still fitting but will need to come off soon. My wedding rings are getting really tight when I get hot. My feet have also started swelling after my evening mile walk. Once I put them up I'm okay.
Happy or Moody most of the time: I've been in a pretty good mood all week. Works been slow which can be a little stressful. I will be starting another position here soon so hopefully everything will work out great.
Looking forward to: Starting to plan my baby shower. We've picked July 21st so we're excited to start planning that. Finding a 4Runner in my price range, continuing to working on the nursery, My new job change, and warmer weather!
