According to my doctor’s records, at 24 weeks I am nearly 10 pounds lighter than I was at 24 weeks in my last pregnancy. In fact, when I was 18 weeks pregnant with Kaeta, I was already the size I am now. I still fully expect to look and feel like a bloated cow by the time this baby is full term, but at least for now I know it could be worse!
If you’re interested, go here for a rough comparison between 17 and 22 weeks.
You look wonderful! Don’t most women gain more weight with each pregnancy? And I still remember the advice you gave me when I was pregnant last time–no one cares what you look like when you’re carrying around a super-cute little girl as an accessory. I’m sure that’s twice as true for your second kid.
