24 weeks - 6 months

We have reached the viability mark. At 24 weeks Doctors will take measures to save the baby or stop labor if I went into labor early. A little bit of relief is washing over me. I ordered the Hypno-babies home study program and cd's that I can't wait to start listening to. I think this is worth a whole post on it's own but I am excited to start the hypno-birthing lessons. The Captain and I want a completely natural birth experience and decided this was our best choice. If you have experience with Hypno-birthing I would love to hear it.

The baby is still the size of a papaya this week, next week we change vegetables.

Best Moment of the week: The baby finally gave the Captain what he wanted, a kick of his very own.

Epiphany of the week: A lot of walking in the day, i.e. sight seeing, makes you feel like you have to pee that more often.

Entertaining question/comment of the week: I don't think I have one this week.

Obsessions: The baby shower! I have two showers coming up, one in my home town and one here. I am getting asked a million questions that I need to start getting them answers too. Plus a guest list.

What I am most looking forward to this week: Going to Joann Fabrics to get what I need to make a sling carrier and a high chair cover for my high chair when I was a baby.

What I miss the most: Being able to stand up and put on pants. I must sit now or fear toppling over.

Symptoms: Back pain arrived this week, it doesn't really hurt per se but more of a tired ache all day long.

Milestones: Baby's skin is becoming more opaque as the fat starts to pack on. And, thanks to the formation of small capillaries, his newly thick skin is taking on a fresh pink glow. *Courtesy of TheBump.com
