My tummy hurts

In the past 2 days my tummy has popped a little bit more - in fact, I can now see my abdominal muscles stretching through my skin above my belly button!!! I nearly screamed when I noticed this yesterday! It just seems too soon! If I'm already having this kind of stretching, what the heck are my abs going to be like at 40 weeks?! It's not the skin itself (stretch marks), it's the actual muscle fibers! It's the freakiest thing I've ever seen... To go along with all of this, my tummy has been a little sore as well (understandably so). It's just funny how this all goes in spurts. I go a few weeks without gaining any weight and then BOOM! I'm up 2-4 pounds and my stomach is bigger overnight. I should've seen it coming, I've been eating like a pig since this weekend! lol. I usually get ravenous right before I get a little pop. Anyway, I will definitely take a picture of this phenomenon to show all of you! I need to take my 24 week pictures tomorrow anyway.

In other news, the heartburn is back. Sometimes. It comes and goes, but I usually experience at least a few minutes of pain every day. Booooo! But yay for peanut butter. (c: Who'd of thought peanut butter would get rid of my heartburn. lol.

I've also decided that this little girl is a ninja! I swear she's having a fight to the death with the placenta in there! hahaha. I'd better not see any throwing stars come flying out of me!

Finally, it just dawned on me today that since we're having a girl I can sign her up for ballet/dance/etc.!! I am probably way too excited about this, and knowing my luck she'll absolutely hate dance, but I'm still thrilled! YAY cute little tutu's and other frilly girly crap!
