Today marks 24 weeks, and the stomach is for sure stretching as you can see in today's photo! I was actually told four times today at work how I've really popped out over the last week. Normally, some would get frustrated with a comment like that, but I've been thrilled with it!
Other than nasty hives on my stomach, arms and back for two weeks, life has been good. And, it's even better now that they are gone. I'm sleeping well with my body pillow and feel great during the day, too.
I had a routine check-up and all seems well thus far. My blood pressure was good, have gained 6 lbs. to-date, and the heartbeat was 140. He was a little stinker again, as he would move every time they placed the doppler on my stomach. I don't think he likes to be bothered! :) Nothing new to report from the doc. My next appointment will be the glucose test and check for iron levels.
I've been hungry a lot more lately and wanting BEEF of all things! Last night I ate my first steak, a New York Strip, and Kim thought it was hillarious.
Here's to another set of good weeks ahead!
