As of today, I am 24 weeks. This is a big
moment for me and J2. First, we have never made it this
far before. And second, we have technical viability. I know it’s
not a guarantee of anything, but it’s a step in the right
direction. And baby girl is the size the an Atlantic Puffin.

Aww, cute.
Because of my front-facing placenta, I
haven’t felt too much in ways of movement. Now I don’t know what
kind of freakish butterflies other women have, but I get more of a
popcorn popping feeling. I saw someone describe it as that and I have
to agree. Little pops here and there. I can’t wait to feel more. In
fact, tonight J2 informed me that he felt a kick last
night. I love that he can feel connected to the pregnancy.
This milestone also gave me the confidence
to give my leave date at work. A long as this pregnancy continues to
go smoothly, my final day at work will be June 29th.
I feel like I can start thinking about my
baby shower, buying the larger baby items, looking at getting the
nursery together. I even bought maternity clothes.
Next appointment is in about a week and a
half. Hopefully, my doctor will do an ultrasound.
