24 weeks

Our appointment on Friday went well! Nothing real exciting, or even to report really. I've gained a total of 8 lbs. (officially 134 lbs.) and my tummy measured right on for 24 weeks (24 inches from the top to the bottom)! We got to hear the heartbeat again, but only for a second. Ellie was so busy, as soon as the Dr. would find her heartbeat, Ellie would move and we'd have to find her again! Finally we gave up :o). Still very exciting for us though! I got kicked in the ribs for the first time last Tuesday (February 5th)!! It doesn't hurt yet, but it's definitely uncomfortable. My back hurts constantly these days so I got the "okay" for my Dr. to call upon a chiropractor for some help! I also got the "okay" to visit a massage therapist if that doesn't seem to do the trick! ;o) I think a massage sounds quite nice right about now! Other than than nothing new. Thank you for reading and hope you are all doing well!!

About those "rib kick" feelings....you just wait! They get pretty interesting to where you feel like the inside of your ribs are constantly bruised! (OUCH)...and if that isn't bad enough...Ellie will learn how to kick you directly in the lungs and knock the wind completely out of you! It's a lot of fun though...knowing that just a few more "kicks" and days of not being able to breathe....and you will finally be able to hold her! Take care sweetie! Hope you're feeling well.
Amanda...& David too!
