20 Weeks

DSC06589 Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 20 Weeks

Size of baby: 10 inches long and weighs 10.5 ounces. He is the size of a banana!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 6lbs
Maternity Clothes: 100% in maternity clothes. I wear dresses ALOT, but had to wear maternity jeans to work!

Gender: BOY!!
Movement: I feel him move a lot now. He likes to kick very low! Becoming more active during the day than at night. 

Food Cravings: Just food!! I can’t stop eating!

What I miss: Cool weather!

Sleep: Sleeping ok and the dreams have subsided, but now my legs cramp and I have to pee in the middle of the night!

Symptoms: A lot of pain in my hips and legs (round ligament). Vomit EVERYTIME I brush my teeth.

Best Moment to this week: Gene got to feel the baby move BIG TIME!

What I am looking forward to: Vacation at the lake. Ordering bedding!

Dr Appointment: Went really good. Heard his heartbeat and Dr. McBride said I was growing right along. I should keep my weight gain to under 4 lbs a month, which I have been able to do already! Next appointment 7/14 and we will schedule my c-section. YIKES!
