24 weeks pregnant

I’m now 24 weeks pregnant.

If you missed last weeks post, take a read of my 23 week update!

Little baby boy is around the length of an ear of corn (mmmm corn on the cob!) around 30cm!  This seems big all of a sudden!!

Apparently his taste buds are starting to develop this week!!!

Here’s me this week (I’m aware bump looks like he is being impaled by the Gruffalo Trunki, but I can confirm bump is fine!!)

Bump Measurement: 40 inches (eeeek 40!!! That’s +1 inch this week!)

The dizziness of last week has appeared to have gone this week which is definitely a relief because that was no fun!
In fact, in general I’ve been feeling pretty good this week.

Just tired, really tired…..

My sleep is still not good.  I’m hoping this isn’t it now, because the lack of sleep is making me very grumpy!!  I think a lot of it is down to not being able to get comfy and of course moving around with this bump is getting harder and harder!
Another cause is that this little boy is a night time wriggle monster!!!  Seriously, as soon as I get into bed that’s it he’s kicking up a storm all night (I hope that’s not a sign of things to come once he’s here!!)

I’ve been enjoying my antenatal fitness video this week, it’s been my favourite one so far!!  I’ve felt that it’s actually improved my energy levels as opposed to making me more tired, which is nice!!

When we moved house we put Arthur straight into his big boy bed.  We then put the cot into our bedroom to get Arthur used to it being in there.  This week he’s started climbing into it!  I told him that his baby brother is going to sleep in there and so now he says baby every time he is there!

I think that’s all for this week!  Mum and Dad are arriving soon (fingers crossed!!) so it will be nice to have some help with Arthur for a couple of weeks!!

Ill be be back next week with my 25 week update!
