Kelly Belly-20 weeks (2 days late this time!)

How Far Along: 20 weeks....as in halfway there!  I can't believe it!

Size of Baby: baby boo is the size of a small cantaloupe.  I just ate my weight in cantaloupe by the way....feel so ill....

Maternity Clothes: I am wearing my non-maternity shorts from old navy all the time...they are so comfy!  Almost all maternity shirts and tanks.  I am wearing some dresses that are non-maternity but they work for now.  

Weight Gain:  +6 pounds total...and I think maybe two more but I won't know until I go back to the doctor next Wednesday.

Stretch Marks:  no new ones :)

Belly Button:  still looking the same  



Sleep:  sleeping pretty good for the last few nights.  I think it is because I am home in my own bed with my super lovely body pillows.  I am thankful for the good sleep.  

Best Moment of the Week:  My husband felt the baby move for the first time when I got home from Florida on Saturday night....this was at 19 weeks 4 days.  

My last night on vacation when I was laying in bed she started moving around like crazy.  I put my hand on my belly and I could feel it!  When I got home the next day I sat on the couch beside him and made him put his hand on my belly for a while.  He totally didn't believe me that he might feel it.  All of the sudden she kicked and we both looked at each other with wide eyes.  He was shocked.  She did it a couple more times and it was so special.  I love it!

Movement:   definitely feeling her.  It is getting stronger every day.  It seems like she moves around more after I eat or when I lay down to go to sleep.  Maybe I can just feel her more at those times.  

When she starts moving around a lot it literally makes me laugh.  On our long drive home, after we ate breakfast, I swear she started doing gymnastics in there.  I was just giggling away.  Casey who was riding with me was like what the heck is wrong with you???  I told her the baby was going crazy in there.  It is almost like it tickles sometimes.  I am loving it.  This feeling will NEVER get old.....

Symptoms:  headaches seem to be getting a little better.  They are not as frequent and not as terrible when I do have them.  

Food Cravings/Aversions:  still mostly fruit.  Like I said above...I just ate a TON on cantaloupe!

Gender: a sweet little princess :)

What I Miss:  absolutely nothing 

What I'm Looking Forward to:  our official ultrasound next week!  

Weekly Wisdom: just try to relax and quit worrying about every little thing

Milestones:  halfway there!!!  

Dreams:  I think maybe my dreams have returned to normal so I am going to take this one out.  If I have a weird one, I'll post about it.  


And here's the belly :)
