How many weeks: 24 (SIX MONTHS)
how big is baby: size of a an ear of corn 8.5 inches and 1.5lbs
Weight gain: 15
sleep: Pretty good, I have been taking a miracle pill called Diclegis. BEST. THING. EVER. Had some insomnia this week, but not too bad compared to my previous pregnancy.
cravings: Licorice ( any kind), bean burritos, ice cream
feeling: Good. Tired. I'm taking full advantage of Mason's afternoon naps lately. I feel like I can't get through my day without a nap. I finally cleaned out Mason's closet/room. I did what I have been dreading and moved Boston's crib to the new baby's room. Boston and Mason's nursery looks so empty, I hate it. The first thing Heath said was why did you move it out? I had to be done at some point. Trying to adjust to Mason's new room. He will always share it with his brother, even if his brother isn't physically there.
I also had a massage this week which was MUCH needed. My massage therapist is the best and I honestly don't think my muscles have ever been so tight and then so relaxed after. It was the best massage I have ever had!
gender: GIRL
best moment of the week: We've had so many fun moments this week with it being the 4th of July holiday. We had a little stay cation 1 hour south of our hometown, took Mason down the alpine slide in Park City (which he loved!), ordered breakfast in bed which was the best $40 I have ever spent! It was so fun and something I have always wanted to do. I felt okay about spending that much since we didn't have to pay to stay at the hotel. Heath's job does have some perks. :)
-taking Mason to his first parade was so fun. Magical really. He had no idea what to think of all the noise and people throwing candy. It was fun. That being said fireworks were that much more magical. We let him throw pop its and Heath put on a firework show for us, my mom, and sister and her kids. Mason loved that too and didn't move a muscle the whole time. The town fireworks he liked too, but he was delirious by the time they started.
-Having someone else besides my husband give me my progesterone shot. Hahaha Heath would laugh reading this, but it's true. We had a slight issue with our last shot.... Let's just say the bruise/hematoma is still there and it's almost been 2 weeks ago... Poor Heath, such a good sport, we were taught so terribly on how to give it and he just has hated giving them to me. I have the sweetest RN who is a friend of a friend that has offered to give them to me. It went over so much more smoothly. Still is a huge pain in the butt.. Quite literally, but oh so much better.
Worst moments of the week:
-Mason fell off the bed pretty badly while we were staying at the hotel. It was so awful and I felt terrible. There was a side table right next to where he fell and it was a pretty good drop. He got a bruise on his arm and because it was dark when he fell I couldn't really see where he hit when he landed. MOM FAIL.
-Heath having to go out of town for work after spending the last 11 days home with us.
Looking forward to:
- Dr appt Friday, always nice to see how the baby girl is doing
-hitting 28 weeks (week of viability) I have been having fears of having this baby too early. I hope it's just be being anxious.
-Mason's swim lessons next week.
-Candice's bridal shower Saturday!.
Random Thoughts:
- Mason is finally walking!!!
-I can't believe we will have a baby in 3 months or sooner.... Yikes! AM I READY?
- I am so ready for fall... Too hot for this pregnant lady.
