Bumpdate: Week 24

Here it is - my final pregnancy update of 2013!  I've got 45 more minutes to type and post this before we ring in the new year!  (Crazy NYE plans, right?!)  It's so crazy that 2014 will bring a second baby to our little family of three.  Even crazier that there are only about 15 weeks remaining until that happens!  And even crazier that I've been in my second trimester for ten whole weeks now and the third is only about a month away!  Nonetheless, I'm ready for the next 15ish weeks and look forward to the amazing year ahead!

How Far Along: 24 weeks

Size of Baby: ~12 inches, just over a pound; the size of an ear of corn

Gender: BOY

Weight Gain: Yikes...I've eaten so much lately with the holidays and all.  I'm already dreading getting on that scale at my doctor's appointment on Friday...

Food Cravings: Nothing specific, but lots of sweets and desserts.

Food Aversions: Still not in the cooking-mood, but nothing has been a true aversion.

Movement: Feeling my stomach jump and thump from the outside.

Sleep: Sleeping great.

Clothing: Still squeezing into my pre-prego jeggings.  Thank goodness for this one pair of jeggings...but I wear them about five days per week!  I ordered a few new pairs of maternity jeans from Old Navy...waiting on them to arrive and crossing my fingers that they work!

Other Pregnancy Symptoms: Heartburn/acid reflux was in full force for a few days around Christmas.  Pepcid and Tums, galore!  But surprisingly, I haven't felt it since!

What I Miss: Nothing specific this week.

Best Moment: Christmas was pretty fantastic.

Looking Forward To: Saying hello to 2014 later tonight!
