24 weeks

How many weeks: 24

What size is baby: ear of corn, 12 inches and 1.32 lbs

Movement: This kid has turned into a total night owl! As soon as I lay down at night he starts a dance party in my belly ALL.NIGHT.LONG! It seems like he really enjoys wedging his little fingers or toes at the very edge of my uterus and wiggling them. It is the strangest sensation!

New symptoms: My only symptom seems to be a lack of symptoms, thankfully. Aside from the fact that I tire a lot more easily than I used to I feel great most days. My appetite has settled down and I don't feel ravenous all the time anymore. In fact, there are some days that I can eat fairly light (and healthy of course) and feel good.

Cravings: My love of chocolate has returned. I crave a little piece of super dark chocolate in the evenings, but that was normal for me pre-pregnancy.

Sleep: The wiggling and flipping that happens every night makes it very hard to fall asleep and stay asleep. Although it's given Arthur some prime time to feel him move, it's also exhausting! I won't complain though. Last night I was very tired and he didn't move at all...I don't know if he was worn out too or what but it scared me so much that I couldn't sleep at all. When he finally started wiggling around during breakfast I realized that I'd MUCH rather have him keep me awake than be still. So wiggle on baby boy!

Rings on/off: on

Best memory of the week: Feeling him roll around...not just kick. It's slightly uncomfortable but I'm thankful that he is a growing, healthy, and active little boy. I hope I can keep up once he's out!

Looking forward to: decorating his nursery in Stavanger!
