24 weeks

I've made it to the point of viability. Such an amazing feeling. Miles better stay put for quite a bit longer though :)

Cravings: they have switched from fresh veggies to fresh fruit...ESP watermelon! I can't get enough!!

Sleep: still the same. Some nights it's good and I get 4-5 hours. Some nights maybe like 2 haha...I just take that as a sign Gods preparing me for a newborn :)

I have had some severe acid reflux issues..nothing they are giving me works,and it doesn't matter what I eat or how much or how little I eat it hurts...but again, I'll take the discomforts any day if Miles stays healthy! :)

Exciting events: his nursery is painted and furniture will arrive this Sunday!! I get to spend my first birthday pregnant...such a blessing! We have a small Babymoon to New Mexico scheduled in February. My glucose test is coming up in February! I get a 4D ultrasound of this sweet baby's face in early March. And my baby shower is in the midst of being planned (so surreal)!!! So many fun exciting things.

Miles kicks and moves like crazy!! I call him my little monster because sometimes it looks likes he's trying to escape my belly! He's one active baby-and I think huge too by the looks of me :)

God is so great!!

Wow!! So excited for you guys!!

Wanted to mention the BEST medicine for reflux. I have had to take it my past three pregnancies because my acid reflux gets so bad I absolutely cannot lay down or sleep!

The ONLY thing that has worked for me is called Protonix. And by works for me - I mean it works perfectly!!! No more reflux!! My past three doctors have 'sworn by it' and they have been right on the money! :)

Anyway - sounds like sooo many great things are coming up for you guys! Praise God!!

Next week we will find out if we are expecting our 5TH GIRL or 1ST BOY!! Can't wait to find out (especially because I had many of the same symptoms and cravings that you have experienced)!

Hugs to you!
Kelly
