Pregnancy Highlights
How
Far Along: 20 Weeks
Size
of Baby: 10.5 ounces .. the size of a
banana
Total
Weight Gain: +7 lbs
Movement:
Yes, sporadic! I felt Noah at about week 15, so I was really anxious to feel
baby girl soon, too. It turned out not being the case! I finally began to feel
her about 2 weeks ago on and off. She moves a lot at night when I am laying
down. I don’t feel her much during the day. I love this part of being pregnant!
Cravings:
Chick-Fil-A almost every single day. I am craving chick-fil-a chicken
sandwiches with American cheese, fries and a large sweet tea. I also am loving
Italian food with this baby just like I did with Noah. I love Dr. Pepper, too.
I do NOT want any red meat. I got sick twice early in this pregnancy after
eating a cheese burger and I really haven’t wanted one since.
Sick
or Queasy: Here and there. About 3-4 weeks ago I went from taking 3 Zofran a
day to only 1 in the morning. There have been a few days I have had to take 2,
but not many. I am not sure if I am, in fact, sicker this time OR if my sickness
has been the result of not as much rest and down time due to chasing a toddler.
Overall, I am much better, but I still have a few sick periods that come and
go.
Symptoms:
Lots of going to the bathroom. Hard to breathe! I am sure the humidity has not
helped. I went to the doctor last week and he said that a lot of it was all the
extra fluid. I do not remember having trouble with Noah. But, I forget all the
bad too. Also, nose bleeds. . Worse this time. My sinuses messed up almost
immediately.
Best
Moment of the Week: Spending a relaxing weekend at the lake with Jason and Noah
as well as my family!
Looking
Forward To: More movement! Her bedding is due to arrive this week as well, so I
am looking forward to seeing how everything comes together.
