G is for Go-Go Baby (24 Weeks)

How far along? 24 Weeks



Baby’s Size: According to all the e-mails I receive, the baby should be a foot in length and about 1 pound.


Weight Gain: No idea, but I go to the doctor this week for a check-up.

Bellybutton: It's an innie.


Stretchmarks: None yet. Phew!


Fitness:  Still taking our nightly walks and going up as many hills as possible.  Now that it's getting dark we try to talk right before or after dinner.

Maternity Clothes: I have one pair of my regular jeans I can still fit into and button!

Names: Any guesses?

Gender: Lots of people think the baby is a girl.  We still do not know.

Baby Movement: On and off.  There is still plenty of room for the baby to move around so I am sure once things get tighter in there I will feel a few kicks to the ribs, etc.

Sleep: Good now that the dog is not waking me up 4 times per night.   I am still a tummy sleeper.

Food Aversions: None this week still.


Things to do:  Register at Target.  Paint the baby's room.  Finish painting the crib.  Paint the new dresser.  Hang up curtains. Buy cute containers for book shelf.  We have a Dec. 7th deadline!

Best Moments this week: A surprise baby shower from our Sioux Falls family!  And Sara bought us a dresser for the baby's room that I plan to paint a funky color or do white with the crackle paint.  Thanks all!
