Baby size: Girlfriend is as long as an ear of corn now and apparently gained about 4 oz since last week.
How far along: 24 weeks and 5 days. Only 107 days to go.
Total weight gain: Up 22 lbs. My total weight gain goal of 30 lbs went right out the window.
Exercise: Besides the miles walked in Disney last week, I have not exercised. I had the best intentions of getting back to my running routine this week, but this polar vortex we are experiencing squashed that plan. I just don't have enough motivation to layer up and run in 20-30 degree temps.
Stretch marks: No, and hoping I can avoid them.
Swelling: None.
Belly button: Pretty much out.
Sleep: I have full blown insomnia from 2-5 am each night. Wed morning I commuted to Philly for work at 2:30am, which was nice b/c there is no traffic on the roads at that hour. Last night I watched the local news which was on replay at 3am.
Food cravings: Some sweets lately which is not like me b/c typically I crave salt.
Symptoms: My hips were hurting me in Disney from all the walking, insomnia and major constipation - sorry about the TMI.
Movement: Yes! She loves to kick or punch me while I am relaxing.
What I’m loving: Preparing for Christmas - only 35 days left! Some people nest while pregnant, but all I've wanted to do is Christmas shop. Most of the presents are already purchased or in the works and it's still a week out from Thanksgiving. This weekend we plan to hang the lights but our display will be scaled down this year since I can't hang off the roof like I did last year to outline the house.
