My symptoms: Besides wanting to eat everything within 2 feet of me? I feel a lot of pulling on my belly (medical term -- round ligament pain). Walking up stairs (or doing anything physically exerting) is a lot harder now, and I know I look a little awkward when I'm doing it.
Weight gain: Total = 11 pounds (as of last week's check up at 24 weeks); Within the last month = 7 pounds! My OBGYN kindly pointed out that I "can't be doing that again" this month!
What I do to try to relieve my symptoms: Counting down the days until July 10th! Overall, I'm feeling really well...aside from adjusting to the physical changes of pregnancy.
Movement: I can actually see him rolling around in my belly now-a-days. It's honestly the coolest thing I've ever witnessed. Kind of terrifying too...thinking that he has to come OUT of me!!
What I miss the most: Hot dogs and martinis :) Now that the weather is beautiful in Dallas, I want to sit on patios and drink mimosas, wine, beer, ANYTHING!
What I’m craving: Sweets, sweets, sweets. It's funny...at first, when I was super nauseous, all I wanted was salt. Now, it's sweets. I can totally see how Jenny McCarthy gained something like 70 pounds during her pregnancy...food is our only vice!
One memory from last week: He's super active right now. If I lay flat on my back, I can see his little head pop up!!
I think a lot about who he'll look like. I'm hoping he looks like this sweet baby boy...can you guess who this is?!
