21 Weeks

Total weight gain: 9 lbs
Maternity clothes? Yep!
Stretch marks? Still using the magic potion hoping it'll prevent them!
Sleep: Much better this week.
Best moment of the week: Hearing her heartbeat at my monthly appointment.
Missing anything? A glass of wine might be nice.
Movement? I can officially say we've graduated from flutters to full on kicks! Feels like she's doing gymnastics in there!!
Food cravings: Skinnycow Ice Cream sandwiches! I woke up thinking about them one day!
Symptoms: Officially diagnosed with sciatica. Dr suggested a maternity water aerobics class or physical therapy. Where's my suit?!
Queasy or sick? Waaaay better! Yay!
Looking forward to: Registering for all baby's new stuff with her Nana, Aunt K, and Presley this weekend!
Weekly Wisdom: Learning that baby girl is on the "larger side of average" already. Not much of a surprise to us!

20 Weeks!

Halfway baby! Soooo happy to say that. Without getting too sappy let me just say that there were days on our journey when I wasn't sure it'd ever happen for us, and now knowing we are halfway to meeting our baby girl is such an incredible feeling.

Total weight gain: 8 lbs, alright!
Maternity clothes? All day, every day.
Stretch marks? No, thank you.
Sleep: Pretty awful this week :(
Best moment of the week: Hitting the halfway mark!
Missing anything? Eating without crazy heartburn. Ayyiyi
Movement? Yes, she's still really low and kicks several times a day.
Food cravings: Spinach with vinegar.
Symptoms: Mmmhhmmm
Queasy or sick? Peanut-y stuff still
Looking forward to: Getting something customized with her pretty little name!
Weekly Wisdom: Our ultrasound tech said she doesn't like the fruit/veggie size comparisons bc they can vary in size, so at 20 weeks she compared baby to the size of a Pepsi can!

19 weeks!
