24 weeks 1 day

How far along? 24 weeks 1 day

Maternity clothes? only wearing maternity pants now but still some regular shirts and old my empire waisted stuff works. I would say I'm showing now though (pictures later).

Symptoms: Feeling good. No more dizzy spells. I'm getting more tired though. I was taking extra iron which seemed to help so I think I will start doing those again.

Stretch marks? nope not that I can tell yet...hoping to keep them at bay still.

Weight Gain: ummmmm... around 10 lbs is all still I think. But my ob/gyn hasn't said anything about it not being enough so we'll see at the next visit.

Sleep? sleeping okay but starting to get uncomfortable turning side to side.

Best moment this week? *see story below*

Movement? Jeff has felt the girls move once or twice now. And today I was able to see one moving on my stomach...it was crazy to see my belly popping up and down ever so slightly. Jeff came home from work and I told him. So after dinner I could feel the girls moving around and we sat on the couch to see if we could see them. Jeff started talking to my belly and almost immediately you could see movement near my belly button. Then it was like they were hyper cause they were moving more then I saw them previously. It was really cool.

Food Cravings? nothing really. I like ice cream. Also homemade taco salad sounded really good today so going to make that for dinner tomorrow.

Gender? two little girls...becoming more okay with some pink clothes and cute stuff.

What I miss? Nothing compared to where I am.

What I'm looking forward to? Working on the nursery and oh heavens let me finish the crib bedding too.

Milestones: actually seeing the kiddos move on my stomach...have to say that's been the coolest thing thus far.

Emotions: pretty even keel but I'm sure I get cranky when it's time for bed...sleeping is wonderful.
