baby #2 {24 weeks}

 

24 weeks. 6 months.

for some reason, 6 months, feels like such a milestone to me.

as i was looking back at lasts weeks and the week before bump posts (to see what colors and fonts i used) i noticed that my weight jumped 4 pounds in one week. nutso. but then this week i gained no weight. i am pretty sure i put i documented the wrong weight last week. i think i gained another 2 pounds this week and had only gained 2 pounds last week. makes me feel better stating that anyway. i definitely feel like i've grown this week for sure. but the scale told a different story!

we had a good week. it was nice getting back into the swing of things and have some normalcy to our days. i even meal planned this week and cooked dinner for my family 4 nights. which has been huge for me lately. something about pregnancy and cooking just do not go together for me. but i did it and i didn't hate it. i made easy meals and it was nice not having places to go in the evenings after work and the babysitters. funny thing though....and forgot to mention above. i kind of had a crazy food aversion this week. EGGS. i planned to make quiche friday night but just could not bring myself to do it. and then last night aaron asked for breakfast for dinner but i just couldn't stomach having to cook eggs. but i think i'm better today and will make the quiche for dinner tonight. eggs do not sound revolting to me today!

harry has really been extra active this week. and getting in weird uncomfortable positions that its hard to move him out of. up until recently he has been pretty mild. i feel movements. usually when i'm still. but this last week or 10 days he's been a different baby in there. i think he's running out of room. i feel him low, high and on both sides. and i've even been able to see his little body parts, elbows or knees i'm assuming poking out. as uncomfortable as his positions can get at times its one of my most favorite things about pregnancy. that and getting to gain a lot of weight and everyone still tells you look soooo cute. ha!
