20 weeks

 

 

 

How far along? 20 weeks.

Baby Hart is the size of:  A banana.

Total weight gain/loss: 5 pounds gained as of the last appointment.

Maternity clothes? Yes, and I was able to score some deals on a few new shirts at tank tops from Motherhood at the Tanger Outlets while on our vaca!  Happy to have some more casual maternity clothes;)

Stretch marks?  Not yet, though the belly's getting quite itchy;)  Wait for it..;)

Sleep?  Better, thanks to my fabulous friend Sarah giving me her Boppy Body Pillow!  Woot!

Best moment this week: Going to the Smoky Mountains with some super friends of ours from Chattanooga!

Miss anything? Being able to have Silas snuggle on my lap better:/

Movement: Yes, and Jason finally for sure felt him too!!

Food cravings: Breakfast foods.  You wouldn't even believe all I ate while at the Pancake Pantry in Gatlinburg.  And all the breakfast-y goodness I bought at the grocery store yesterday.

Symptoms:  Sciatica, bizarre dreams... had forgotten to mention nose-bleeds that started a few weeks ago, but glad to say none this last week!

Showing?  Yeppers.  I've noticed people look at my belly strange and are obviously relieved when I then speak of being pregnant.  That would be one weird big lunch bump.

Gender:  It's a BOY!!!!

Belly button in or out? Still weird... like 3/4 out 1/4 in:)

Wedding rings on or off?  On.

Adjustments? Looking to set up some chiropractic adjustments soon... please yes.

Emotions: Excited, and honestly a bit intimidated by the big appointment this next Tuesday with the specialist... but fighting the worry!

Learned this week: That bagel thins are a joke... a cruel, cruel joke.

So thankful for:  All the movement I've been feeling, and that Jason could feel it too!

Looking forward to: Our appointment with the specialist next Tuesday and getting some questions answered!
