24 Weeks and Feeling Great!

May 2, 2012 - We had our 24 week appointment this week and everything is looking good. I have gained 4 pounds since the last visit to the doctor which ends up averaging about 1 pound a week. The doctor was very happy about that. Everything is looking good so far though. We have another ultrasound in 4 weeks to look at the placenta again. Keep us in your thoughts that it moves!

24 Weeks

I have been feeling very good lately. The only thing that has been bothering me is my back and my inner legs when I go for long walks for exercise. I assume this is just part of the process because I never had problems before walking or exercising. It is really only when I walk. The elliptical treats me well, so I just need to start using that more often.

This week I have been getting a lot more heartburn/acid reflux. Since I have had problems with this for most of my adult life, the doctor said if it gets to be a regular thing I just need to start taking medication daily. I don't think I am at that point yet and want to give it a week or so before I start taking anything.

Justin just painted the ceiling of the baby's room tonight. We will work on the rest of the walls soon. His dad and Geralyn will most likely come to help with the rest of the walls. I am sure they all just love my idea with the stripes on the wall!

Milo's excited to meet baby

This weekend is opening weekend of fishing, so Justin is going fishing up north with his brother and cousins. I will be here in town working on a project for work. Our young professionals group is installing a trail that parents can take their kids to for learning and fun at the same time. It will be a busy weekend, but I will not be doing any of the heavy lifting! I will be there more to do the lighter work and to take pictures.

This is all my jabber for tonight! We will be back in a week to post some more pictures.

  1. So fun to read these! Makes me remember what it was like the first time around for us. So many things to get ready for and be excited about. So glad we're both past 24 weeks now too. Only 16 left! Baby girl is kicking me as I type this, hope you're getting kicked too (in a good way ;))
