24 Weeks

How far along: 24 weeks (10/25/15)
Baby size: Head to heel, about 12.5 inches.  And 1.5 pound. At my doctor appointment on Monday, I was measuring 24 weeks (when I was 23w1d), so a few days ahead!

Maternity clothes: Maternity pants and shirts make up my wardrobe now!
Stretch marks: No new ones. 
Sleep: I've been using a pillow between my legs and I've been much more comfortable and able to sleep better. 
Best moment this week: Hearing his heartbeat at my doctor appointment.  Summer heard it too, but wasn't sure about it ;) Summer also got to feel the baby kick on Saturday.  Again, she wasn't so sure but was excited to tell Grandma about it and try again on Sunday. Oh, and another--we found a doula this week!
Miss anything? Not really.
Movement: Yes!  He is starting to move and kick more...just a lot of bladder kicks!

Belly button in or out? In, but it's getting more shallow.
Wedding rings on or off? On.

Baby size: Head to heel, about 10.5 inches.  And 12 ounces.

Best moment this week: Feeling more movement!
Miss anything? Not really.
Movement: Starting on Thursday (20w4d) I really started feeling more consistent movement.  Now I've been feeling it daily.  It's still super low, but I'm accustomed to that now.  I've been trying to see if I can feel him kick on the outside yet, but every time I put my hand on my belly after feeling a kick, he is still!  
Food cravings: Nothing really.

Gender: It's a boy!
