24 Weeks
It’s been pretty quiet the last two weeks. We had our appointment with cervical measuring doc (a week and a half ago), and everything stayed the same. Her measurement was 2.7cm, and the doc seemed comfortable waiting 2 weeks (this coming Friday) for another one. We went a whole week without an appointment!! That’s a first for us. Our next appointment is this coming Friday (Friday the 13th!) and it’s another cervical measurement. Hopefully everything has remained the same.
How far along? 24 weeks 5 Days!
How Big Is Choochie? Choochie is about 12 inches long and weighs one and a one quarter pounds, gaining steadily at a rate of six ounces per week. Much of that weight comes from accumulating baby fat, as well as from growing organs, bones, and muscle. Those little ears of hers are getting sharper and can hear very loud sounds, from a yapping dog (Keena loves to bark!) to a jackhammer. Also by now, Choochies face is almost fully formed, complete with eyelashes, eyebrows, and hair.
Maternity clothes? Everything Maternity!!
Sleep? Had a couple of good nights in a row (except for last night) !
Movement? This little one is a kicker, she even kicked me in the face a couple days ago!!
Food cravings? Gatorade (red), Pink Lemonade, Water, any type of sweets!!!!
Gender
Milestones? Started putting paint samples on the wall!!
Emotions: A couple breakdowns this past week. Mostly minor, but the hormones are raging!!

Hi! AMAZING blog. Your second urologist, in Hackensack, was clearly wonderful. Would you mind emailing me his name so I can make sure I’m setting up my husband’s consultation with the same guy that you saw? Does his last name begin with S?

This is SO exciting!
My advice to you? Baby mittens! My little bean scratched herself a lot without them because the nails grow so quickly.
Also? Your time will FLY by now. You are now on your way. Goes like a snap to the fingers. Exciting.
My baby is just over three months now. Miracles DO happen. And she is my little buddy and everything. Everything.
Hormones will get better after your boo is born. You’ll see. And although you won’t sleep a ton at first, it does get better in the weeks.
Anyway, I am just so thrilled for you. It’s terrific. You will become even better versions of who you are once you are parents. You will know what I mean when it happens…
