20 Weeks




Dress 14.99 @ Ross


How far along? 20 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss:   I am going to say a little over 6 lbs; it isn
t at seven or even 6 and ½ so a little over will have to do.
Maternity clothes?  I have made it to the 20 week mark with no maternity clothes, no Bella Bands and no rubber band tricks. I feel it is coming soon though.
Stretch marks?  Nope.
Sleep: My dreams are wild and vivid, and I feel like I could sleep all the time.
Best moment this week: Getting the crib and mattress in. I am so exciting to watch the nursery and my dreams and ideas unfold.
Have you told family and friends:  Yes.
Miss Anything?  Not being tired, Going to Hooters (I just can
t go and watch my friends fill pitcher after pitcher), and  a waistline!
Movement:  Maybe, possibly. I wish I knew exactly what it should feel like, instead I can only guess.
Food cravings: Still chocolate and fruits and veggies. Funny story-I found this recipe for a chocolate chip cookie in a mug and decided to make it using a few substitutions (bad idea) and it came out terrible so instead I had apple nachos
so good. I also am really liking cinnamon-sweet potatoes drenched in cinnamon, a cinnamon raisin English muffin with the new Laughing Cow wedge of cinnamon cream cheese for just 45 calories! I also would eat the heck out of a cinnamon roll if given the opportunity.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  I think it is going to be the same all the way through, stinky smells.
Have you started to show yet: I think so. Someone said the other day that I was starting to get a little bump but then today someone said that I was going to make it through this whole pregnancy and never show anything. So I think it has more to do with what I am wearing at the moment.
Gender prediction:  Girl
Labor Signs:  No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time:  Happy, especially now that the nursery is coming together.
Weekly Wisdom: Don
t except what has worked in the past as things that will work now. Pay attention. Read labels. Question. RESEARCH what you are buying, eating and plan on putting in, on your body and what you plan on putting in, on or around your baby. Ive been ready some interesting stuff which has caused me not only to purchase an organic crib mattress, but also look into better types of diapers than Huggies and Pampers.  
Looking forward to: Eating dinner with my husband for our 20 weeks this week at Flemmings. Getting the floors put down upstairs for the nursery and the rest of the house. Turning our UT room into an upstairs
family room instead of the clutter room, office, lounge area. 
And it looks like my hubby will have to work on the mattress level in the crib. It is so crooked from this angle. I think he just doesn't have the mattress pushed down enough on the left side as I think I can see the springs a little underneath.
