How Far Along: 20 Weeks!!!!!
Size of Baby: Lee weighs 10 1/2 ounces this week and is the size of a banana!
Total Weight Gained/Lost: Probably gained a few more in the past couple of weeks. Probably up 8ish lbs. by this point.
Maternity Clothes: Yes! ALTHOUGH....I put on some pre-maternity jeans jeans yesterday because my ONE pair of maternity jeans were dirty. Thank goodness for the rubber band trick I was able to wear them all day!! (and I was comfortable!!) :)
Movement: YES YES YES!!! Phillip was able to feel him move for the very first time the other night at like 5am. The dogs had woken us up for some reason and as we were going back to sleep, Lee starting kicking around. I wasn't sure if Phillip was going to be able to feel him but finally he said "wait...was that you??"...haha! I assured him there is no way I can make the inside of my stomach move like that. He was pretty excited!
Sleep: Let's just not talk about it.....last night I ended up on the couch after being awake from 3-4:45am. Haley and I slept pretty well once we moved to the couch!
What I Miss: Last night I was talking to a good friend who is about a month ahead of me, and we both decided that lately what we miss is being able to "be on the go" as long as we used to be able to. I've definitely started noticing that I can't push myself any longer than I should because I'll definitely start to feel it in my lower back as well as just being mentally and physically exhausted. Definitely not used to my body reacting like this....
Cravings: Still the fruit. Drinking a strawberry banana smoothie AS I TYPE! :)
Aversions: Nothing lately
Symptoms: Still feeling great! Phillip and I are going to start clearing out the "nursery" room this weekend. SO excited to get this process started!!
Highlights from this week: By far this week was when Phillip was able to feel Baby Lee move for the first time. He has been dying to feel him....it made me SO excited when this finally happened! Also, it's hitting the half way point in this pregnancy. So far so good! (**knock on wood!)
