Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 20 Weeks
Size of baby: 6 1/2 inches, the size of a banana (according to Baby Center) or cantaloupe (according to What to Expect When You're Expecting and The Bump).
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Don't hold your breath! I'm still not telling my weight, but I will tell you've I've only gained 3 lbs in the last 2 months according to the scale in our bathroom.
Maternity Clothes: I'm wearing maternity pants and some maternity tops mixed with regular clothes here and there. I especially like these t-shirts from Gap.
Gender: 10 fingers, 10 toes, is it a boy or a girl? Nobody knows!
Movement: Our baby is movin' all over the place! It felt like little flutters, a goldfish swimming or tiny finger tips pressing into me at first...but now I can feel some bigger movements. Its the neatest feeling ever!
Sleep: I'm sleeping pretty well, but once I wake up there is no going back to sleep. This is a new development that started this week. If I wake up around 5:30, then I'm up for the day.
What I miss: Sushi, having an occasional glass of wine, and soft cheeses. This summer seems to be the summer of the Skinny Girl Margarita (maybe because its been on sale at Costco?) and I have been missing out on it while everyone around me is raving about it. I'll have to wait until next summer to find out what its all about.
Cravings: Fruit
Symptoms: None really!
Best Moment this week: Feeling our baby move all over my tummy while I sat in a back-to-school faculty meeting, while I drive down the freeway, while I wash dishes and as I type this post.
