We have officially crossed the halfway mark of the pregnancy, and no we have not named our little man yet :) i promise we are trying and i will let everyone know as soon as we can make up our creative minds ;) We had a doctors appointment last week and everything went great. I am starting to have some "uncomfortable" times with this baby boy in my belly. I am either having Braxton Hicks contractions or whatever they are called, or i am feeling him press up against me and making my stomach hard as a rock for about 30 seconds. the doctor did not seem too worried about us, so i will not worry either..we go back February 28th for our next appointment, then it's a visit every two weeks!! i can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going, its almost unreal!! Its time for us to start picking out bedding/crib/decorations, etc. for the nursery (this still sounds weird for me to say, but in a great way of course!) i am still leaning towards the "owl" theme along with other "treetop" friends...richard has always had a thing for birds so we are gonna go with that! blues, oranges, greens are what i am thinking, but who knows...my mind could change at any time, just ask my husband!!
Stats:
- Weeks pregnant: 20 weeks 3 days
- My Weight: 132 and counting. Size of baby boy: last week-a mango, this week-a cantaloupe!! Baby weighs about 10.2 ounces and measures about 6.5 inches head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana
- Fun Fact: baby has tastebuds now and has started to learn to swallow!! getting himself prepared i guess :)
How am I feeling?
- Emotionally: I think i am doing much better in this department. My attitude has grown, but only towards people that need it in order to get a point across :) in other words, if you need something to be done or taken care of...i could probably get someone on that right away. ( i am usually a very quiet person) not anymore!!
- Physically: tired and uncomfortable...i know, this is only going to get worse..i hear it from everyone.
- Cravings: just eating a lot of anything that is put in front of me...especially spicy foods. So mexican and japanese have been my big winners the past few weeks. i am also starting to become a fan of sweets again! uh-oh ;)
- Fun Stuff: deciding on room colors, fabrics, etc...this can also be stressful for me. i am not good at picturing things all together without seeing it all in person at the same time...this is where richard comes in with his "artsy" brain.
Well, i feel like i have not done much except sleep and pee since the last time i posted (he has to be sitting on my bladder these past few days) so i feel like i have updated yall on everything new! Overall, we are doing great and just can't wait to meet our little man!! We had a good time at our friends Hannah and Jeremy's Super Bowl party and even had our personal "baby bowl" instead of "puppy bowl" in their living room, haha. It was quite entertaining and a good preparation of what is to come for us in the near future! i can't believe how close we are getting!! yay :)
