20 Week Update

Halfway!!! Well, you know technically I'm past halfway, but 20 weeks just feels exciting to me! Now I have to figure out my next short term goal, I'm thinking maybe 28 weeks when they do the glucose testing? Yeah that sounds good! And of course, 27 weeks and some change is the start of the 3rd trimester, so 28 it is! How fast is time going? Geez!

Last weekend I went to Arizona Mills with a friend for my first baby shopping spree. I was very disappointed in the lack of boy things that appealed to me. I didn't have a whole lot that I wanted specifically, just something affordable that jumped out to me as cute! I didn't see anything. I then decided that maybe I want to dress him in stuff that has cars or puppies on it, or both! Yeah, that turned out to be next to impossible as well. Who would think that finding cars on boy clothes would be that hard? And I don't mean fire trucks and police cars or even dump trucks, just a good ole family sedan would be fine lol or even a race car or something! I finally found two outfits sets at Burlington Coat Factory which were really good prices, but I'm still not happy!

Had a doctor's appointment yesterday, Justin refused to believe me that it's been 4 weeks since my last appointment, that's how fast time is going by! My uterus is right up above my belly button, exactly where it should be, and the doctor said it's not going to start growing out at least a cm a week! I already feel huge haha my back and my feet start hurting pretty bad when I'm walking around a mall for two hours, but otherwise I'm doing pretty well. I have also sadly gained weight in the past 4 weeks, I'm not sure why or how but I'm up about 3-4ish lbs and kind of sad! Doctor said she expects 15-20lbs, UGH I seriously do not want to see the scale register 20 more lbs because it's already way too high to begin with!

Symptoms - Pretty intense RL pain this week, cramping, back pain, heartburn, fatigue, but I love feeling him move and punch/kick!
Food cravings - I swear I'm going to buy an Icee machine! Nothing else though.
Size of baby - Baby should be 10.5" and about 10-11oz and will gain up to 1lb in the next month!
