Happy 24 weeks!
I guess that's about 3/5 of the way there.. 6 months if months were only 4 weeks, but of course they're mostly not so it's only 5.5 months on the calendar. The next couple months are certainly gonna be interesting. I already have considerably more difficulty maneuvering than I am used to. For a long time I wasn't feeling like I was gaining much weight but at this point I'm between 10-15 lbs heavier than my non-pregnant weight (which fluctuates about 5 lbs but I never check it so I don't really know what it was pre-pregnancy).
According to various sources, the baby is about a foot long and weighs about 2 lbs. Congratulations to my baby on your fingernails and tastebuds!! May they serve you well.
We have started playing a game where sometimes when the baby bumps me I will tap on that part of my belly and then the baby will bump me there a couple more times. We go back and forth 2-4 times before I guess the baby finds something better to do ;). It makes me very proud, and, as if there weren't enough besides to do so, makes me feel very special that I get exclusive priveleges to interact with this person no one else knows at all.
I've started african dance and may start belly dance this weekend. At first I was afraid it wasn't good for the baby but it makes me feel so good and the baby's moving enough that I'm not worried any more.
Tons to do in the next few months, not counting the holidays. I am so grateful for all the support my friends and family give me.
My belly is so itchy! No stretch marks yet though, knock on wood!
