24 weeks!

Well, its just about time for another update. I had a dr's appointment yesterday and while everything was fine and dandy with the baby, I, on the other hand, seem to be going a little overboard with the weight gain. After 5 months with only a couple of pounds on the + side, in month 6 it seemed to ALL catch up. Since my last appointment 5 weeks ago, I've packed on 10 pounds! I mean, I really don't understand how I could have gained that much... I'm practicaly eating like a bird... (as I stuff another oreo in my mouth)... ah well. Bob likes my buddah belly and thinks its amusing to poke at my almost-outie belly button. As far as the spousal sympathy weight, Bob is doing all he can to be as UNsympathetic as possible. He's been going to the gym every other day and looks great. He actually dragged me with him yesterday, and to be honest I felt pretty darn good afterward. At the rate I'm going, I'll probably hit the gym 2 or 3 more times before the baby comes.

As far as the baby goes, he's still really active and likes to poke around at random times. Right now he's about 12 inches long and weighs a little more than 1 pound. He can hear loud sounds now so I'll tell Bob to keep his snoring to a minimum because its disturbing the baby. I wonder if it'll work?

Thanks for checking in!
