I am now 25 weeks, so here is my 24 week update.
Check out the week 23 update Here:
How far along: 24 weeks
How big is baby: One pound and three ounces and the size of a large mango.
Weight gain: 6.5 Pounds
Sleep: I have been sleeping well when I go to sleep,but because of packing up the condo and getting ready to close on our house, sleep hasn’t been the top priority.
Diet/Cravings/Aversions: Toast, ginger peach decaf tea, grapefruit, veggie sandwiches, avocados are really hitting the spot this week with lots and lots of water. Occasionally, I will treat myself to a Dunkin Donuts Decaf Mocha Iced Coffee, they are very tasty and a lot cheaper than most hot coffees.
Movement: Lots more movement and kicking throughout the day which is a lot of fun. Grant has also been able to feel more, so that makes it even more fun.
What I’m loving: Knowing that we are getting closer to having this baby, and that everything is still looking healthy which is a huge blessing. Also excited about getting to get our house ready for when she comes.
Symptoms: I honestly still don’t feel that pregnant. I know that I am, but I will forget my belly sticks out farther than before and try to go past Grant and end up brushing him with my stomach which is funny to me every time. I have been making sure to take lots of breaks while packing to not over do it,but still staying active so that is good. I can just tell that I’m getting tired earlier in the evenings,but we are also a lot more busy this week than we have been for a while, so I guess that is to be expected.
What I’m looking forward to: Being in our house and getting to slowly starting changing stuff to make it our own.
Thoughts: I feel like there are so many things to still do, from getting the house ready, to birthing classes, to maternity photos, to picking a name, to…my list could go on forever. Now that I’m past the half way mark, everything feels more real and like time is starting to run out. 🙂
Let me know if you have any questions!

Sounds like you’re feeling well! Soak up those 2nd tri days of more energy. Hopefully you’ll still feel great into the 3rd, but that belly does get in the way more! 🙂 As my energy waned by about week 37, I was really glad I had gotten lots of those “to-do list” items done before then. Excited to hear about the new house and see photos. Hugs to all three of yah!
You look fancy extremely fancy !!
