24 weeks!

I had my 24 week check up today with my OB.  Baby Moore #2 has a healthy, strong heartbeat in the 140s and I am feeling great other than having a weird back pain on my left side.  The Dr. wasn't concerned about it and thinks it is because I'm pregnant AND chasing/keeping up with a 2.5 yr old.  It doesn't help that I have to lift and twist him into his carseat twice a day!  She recommended a light heating pad but I mostly notice the pain when I sit/stand/lie in one position too long.  Let's just say nighttime is the worst.  I usually wake up several times to go to the bathroom and a few times that area almost feels numb and almost brings me to my knees.  I've gained about 15 lbs total so far which is about on target with where I should be.  I gained about 30 lbs with Baker.

I had my first charley horse at 24 weeks.  UGH.  I had them with Baker and let's just say I hope they stay far and few in between.  I almost screamed it was so bad!

I go back on August 23rd for my glucose test -- I unfortunately won't be eating a candy bar and drinking 8 oz of regular soda this go round. It will be a sweet syrup type drink this time.  Wish me luck! After this date, I'll be regularly visiting my OB every 2 weeks! Just doesn't seem like it should be time to do that already.   This pregnancy is seriously FLYING by.  He'll be here before we know it!
