20 weeks.... Half Way There!

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along:
20 weeks!

Size of baby:
About 10.5 ounces and 10 inches long, head to heel. Comparable to a banana!

Total Weight Gain:
Gain of 9. Did good the last 2 weeks, only gained 1 pound!

Maternity Clothes:
Still wearing the shorts, but no shirts yet.

Gender:
A girl... yay!

Movement:
Lots of movement. She is definitely more active at this stage than I remember Carter being. I actually saw her kick through my belly on Sunday, and then Eric finally felt her kick on Monday! Very neat!

Sleep:
Still just OK.

Symptoms:
Haven't had a headache since the last update! Yay! No other symptoms to report. :)

What I miss:
Definitely sleeping on my stomach

Cravings:
Sweets.... ice cream in particular. And Starbucks frappacinos.

Best Moment this week:
Eric feeling her kick and of course, officially settling on a name. Miss Ella Reese!

What I am looking forward to:
Carter getting to feel her kick, too.... hopefully soon!


It was about this time when I was pregnant with Carter that I stopped taking pictures of myself. It's not that much fun watching yourself get fat! But, I'm hoping to do better this time.
