20 Weeks down, 20 weeks to go!!


How far along? 20 weeks (and a few days.. ;)
Total weight gain: i'll guess like 8 or 9? my belly is definitely poking out more so I assume I've gained another lb or so.
Maternity clothes? I've been using the hairtie trick but it may not work for much longer! 
Stretch marks? so far so good. 
Sleep: i've been having some hip pain again, sleeping on the couch seems to fix it though. 
Best moment this week: We had our 2o week checkup today where they check the organs and measure everything, & everything looks healthy! 
Miss Anything? not so much this week, just feeling so lucky and excited. 
Movement? it's the coolest feeling! a few nights ago he kicked so hard it startled me! 
Food cravings: i'm finally feeling like eating ice cream again! yay! fruit is still a pretty big deal too.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  just smells- i thought my super snout was going to stay in 1st trimester but it's baaaack. 
Gender: i kept worrying that after buying a bunch of boy stuff and deciding on a boy name, we'd go in for this appointment and have a little girl on our hands (i've heard of it happening!!). but thank god we still have our handsome man in there.
Labor Signs: Nope.  I have been reading a lot of birth stories and getting really nervous for delivery! 
Symptoms: just some hip pain if I am standing awhile. Otherwise, still feeling good!
Belly Button in or out? I may as well just admit that it's officially sticking more out than in. 
Wedding rings on or off? on.
Happy or Moody most of the time: sensitive- but in general very happy. 


We got the best surprise when we went in for our checkup today- they offered us the 3d ultrasound! I didn't think it was an option so it was really exciting! When I saw this little face I had such a rush of emotion, I couldn't help but cry a little! I'm sure every mama thinks this, but he is the cutest thing I have ever seen. <3


It was hard to get a good shot of his face because he kept rubbing his hands on his face, it was pretty cute!
Here's a few other US pics we thought were cool- check out those little toes & his chunky football player legs! ;)


I think we'll keep him! :)
