24 weeks

24 weeks Pregnant

We had our 24 week OB appointment today. Watson is tracking along exactly as he should be, measuring right at the 50%ile. This means that he is currently ~1 lb, 7 oz and if he keeps this growth velocity up then he will be around 7 lbs at birth. So, keep your fingers crossed that he does not take after his mother and end up being 8 lbs, 14 oz!!!
We didn't get any good shots on the video camara. Our doctor said he is still very, very active so it is hard to get him to settle down and look at us to get a good picture! I already knew he was active b/c I feel him moving nonstop! He has gone from moving around late in the evening to now moving some late in the evening but also early in the morning. I awoke this morning with a kick to my pelvic bone. I was sleeping on my side, so he had settled in on that side of my belly. Jason can definitely feel him move at this point, which is really cool for him.
As you can see by my pics, my belly has popped in the last 4 weeks. Thank God my weight gain is still tracking where it should be as well...I do not want to gain much more than 25 lbs...but maybe that is wishful thinking?
We go back for our 28 week appointment March 26.  They said we should be able to get a great video at this visit because he will actually have some fat on his bones.  I will post that video as long as he cooperates and we get some good shots!
