Insomnia and worry

I cannot sleep anymore. It's not that I'm overly uncomfortable. I think I'm just stressed and worried. I worry a lot about the baby and if it's little heart is okay. I worry that I'm doing something wrong and will hurt him or her. I worry that DH won't bond with our child. I worry that I'm not eating healthy enough and that all of my worry is unhealthy.

I'm taking today to relax, nap, try not to worry as much. I'm just enjoying every little kick I can get out of my little one!

V-day! 24 weeks

How far along: 24 weeks

Total weight gain: 12 pounds- yikes!

How much does baby weigh: I think about a pound now?

Maternity clothes: I need more now... time for another shopping spree

Stretch marks: nope

Sleep: I have to be very careful not to lie on my back now (baby's not getting good blood flow when I do), so I'm not sleeping much anymore.

Movement: lots... keep 'em coming kid! I need the reassurance

Food cravings: chocolate

Belly button in or out: In, but it's starting to peek out

What I miss: being able to sleep
