24 Weeks

I can't believe that I have been pregnant for 6 months now. The first three months seemed to go by really slow but these last three have flown by. I feel so blessed to have had a fairly easy pregnancy so far as I know so many women who have to struggle with being really sick. My biggest complaint is not being able to sleep for more than about 2 hours at a time because my right hip goes numb. It doesn't matter what side I sleep on, how many pillows I put between my legs or how much stretching or walking I do before I sleep. I get so uncomfortable I end up rolling on my back and then I wake up and my lower ab muscles hurt. But I figure if this is the worst thing I've had to deal with then I'm pretty lucky. Lately I've been sleeping with my back against a body pillow so if I roll I don't go all the way on my back and that has helped. Only woke up once last night. Wahoo! This Tuesday we go for another appointment and I imagine we'll get to have another ultra sound. I'm excited to see how much our baby girl has grown! She's been kicking a moving around a lot lately. I'll admit it's not so pleasant when you need to go to the bathroom but I love knowing that she is growing and developing because I can feel her moving. We sure can't wait to meet her!

YAY! You look so cute!
I love it.
Thanks for posting a picture!

I hope you get an ultrasound next time! That would be so exciting... you'll REALLY be able to tell what she looks like then!

You look great! I'm so glad pregnancy hasn't been too hard. The crazy thing is your little girl will be here before you know it and you'll barely remember what it was like to be pregnant. At least that's what happened to me. We are so excited for you!

So cute! I love that shirt. You are a styling pregnant momma. :)

An ultrasound this far along is the best. I hope you get it!
