24 wks LMP (22 wks gestation)
The baby weighs approx. 1.32 lbs or 600 grams and is 11.81 inches or 30 cm long.  I have gained about 30 pounds and my stomach feels really heavy with the baby usually feeling low.  My back seems unbalanced and I often have to take a moment after sitting or laying down to walk normally but I hope that doesn't last.

The baby is almost fully formed about now -- and finally looks like a miniature human instead of other-worldly.
Bones solidify and baby kicks. Sometimes it feels more like a lurch, reminiscent of the Loch Ness monster.
Most babies turn upside-down around this time but will continue to rotate until about week 31 LMP.

I love looking down and seeing my stomach move.  :)

Oh, I had to adjust my watch from the first setting to the third.
