I’m actually 25 weeks tomorrow but it’s been a busy week & my appointment wasn’t until Tuesday. I am feeling so great about reaching the ‘if you have this baby tomorrow, she has a chance’ mark!!
Abby making duckface or blowing bubbles/thumb sucking…you choose
;
Pregnancy: 24 weeks
Weight Gain: - 7.0 and Abigail is 1 lb 4 oz
Sleep: Is mostly aided with OTC medication that is approved for me by my OB. It’s getting harder to stay comfortable all night & I’m getting up 1-3 times a night to pee…awesome.
Gender: Still a girl, we saw a VERY clear picture at my ultrasound last week.
Name: Abigail Jane aka Abby
Feeling: I’m not as able to workout now because of some pretty annoying hip/back pain, my go to gal Jayme & experienced preggo Erin suggested a birthing/exercise ball to roll around on for my hips so I got that at Target last night. Nathaniel seems convinced that it’s for him to throw around our apartment and drive his Dad crazy. The ball plus yoga plus counter pressure will *hopefully* help me get through the next 15 weeks with this pain. I’m still feeling better then I did with Nate and no swelling yet but I’m getting a little more tired at the end of the day and feeling more pregnant.
Health: Blood pressure is well controlled with the procardia so I no longer have to see the special doctor man! I’m pretty relieved about that…very relieved actually! A little touch of occasional pregnancy rage and weeping but I expect it.
Movement: Abby has proven herself to be every bit as psychotic as Nate in womb as of the past few days. She still isn’t as strong as Nate was (already being compared to Nate, they are very different) but she’s more inventive. Nate would just kick me in the vag or the belly, very strongly and very frequently. Abby tests the space between my hip bones, can she fit? How long can she stay between them? How hard can she headbutt my vag. Can she still do a triple axle? Just how far can she stretch her legs into mommy’s ribs? She also REALLY loves to hear her big brother, she will get so excited when she hears him and kick around, he finally got to feel her a few nights ago with his hand & face and asked if she was crying because he pushed on her haha. I wonder if it’s something about the pitch of his voice?
Cravings: Mexican…chicken tacos are delicious!
Next Appointment: November 14th and it’s time for another glucose test!
So sweet that she already recognizes her big brother! You look so cute!

One of the girls my sister babysits for put her ear up to Evie’s bellybutton last week and exclaimed, “I can’t hear the baby!” Too funny!
