Half Way There

 

 

 

I can't believe it. I am 20 weeks along. Half way there. Crazy! Sometimes I feel like the weeks are creeping by but overall this pregnancy has flown by. We had our 20 week appointment on Monday and it was amazing to see the little one move. The ultra sound tech said I have a very active baby. John and I both laughed. Would you expect anything different?

They were able to tell the sex of the baby but we didn't find out. So funny to think they know something we don't know! We are excited for the surprise and can't wait to meet the little one in 20 more weeks. So grateful for a healthy baby that is growing more and more everyday.

I found these little stats on a blog and thought it would be fun to track my own.

 

How far along? 20 Weeks 5 days

Baby Size: 6oz. A small cantaloupe...or the length of a banana!
Total weight gain/loss: 10lbs!
Maternity clothes? Not yet. Just lots of leggings and loose dresses. The jeans haven't zipped in weeks.

Stretch marks? What?! eeewww not yet.

Sleep: I'm still sleeping fine...waking up once or twice throughout the night for bathroom or to put pillow in between legs - it really is true how much it helps.

Best moment this week: Seeing the babe on the ultrasound. Amazing!

Miss Anything? Starting to miss the vino and a cold beer during the Saturday football games.

Movement: Not really. I think I feel the occasional flutter but no real movement.

Food cravings: Sweet Tea. So strange. I was never really a tea drinker and now I can't get enough of it. Also waffles and french toast and cereal.

Food aversions: Still slightly grossed out by most meats (especially chicken) but that was an issue before being preggers. Also, my morning coffee which makes me sad. I'll get the occasional decaf with all the works but it's not the same.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really...but your sense of smell is unbelievable.
Have you started to show yet: Oh yea!
