I had my 24 week appointment today, which went pretty well. I had gained a ton of weight, but they didn’t get on my case too bad. The nurse told me that this is the month people gain the most weight. My belly measured right on 24 cm and Cashew’s heart rate was 144, which is really good.

I had two questions, the first was regarding our new hobby- riding bikes. I am approved to go on the occasional leisurely bike ride with the rest of family. My other question was when we need to schedule my c-section. The dr. said it was a great time to get it scheduled. He looked at the calendar and realized I was due right after Thanksgiving. I said I’d like to schedule it for November 20th, but I think he was worried about it getting in the way of his holiday. He thought the 16th might work out better. He is going to check his calendar and let me next time.

I was curious how much weight I had gained at this point of my pregnancy with Sophia. So I went back and read through my blog archives. Seems like I’m really right on target. I gained a good 10 pounds in my fifth month with her too. In total I think I may be under by a few pounds…so far. Some of the aches and pains I mentioned in my old blogs seem right on too.
