20 Week Update

So this is a big week for baby, 2 appointments, 1 down, 1 to go...

Today was the monthly visit and all is going well. Baby's heartbeat is at 150 (so going down as it should every visit) and I am on track with weight gain. Still havent felt baby move yet but they assured me not to worry, so I wont, but am looking forward to finally feeling the first little flutters in my belly :) Been feeling great (aside from feeling fat) and actually have some energy back and not falling asleep everyday at 7pm. Still trying to get about 8 to 10 hours of sleep otherwise I am sleepy, and if I go too long without eating something the lovely feeling of needing to hurl comes rushing back, but otherwise am not complaining. I'll take this over the 1st 3 months for sure!!

Tomorrow is appointment #2, we go for the ultrasound and to find out the gender. I will be nice to see the baby again, last time it was at 8 weeks and it was just a tiny little dot, so it will be awesome to see baby looking like an actual baby. We will be sure to post some pictures along with the big news tomorrow, so stay tuned.

Mimi, I am soooo excited for you!! Halfway there already--woohoo! :) Can't wait to see pictures and find out what this little baby is. Oh, and chances are you've already felt that little cutie moving and just contributed it to gas or something! He or she will be kicking you in the ribs soon enough, don't worry! haha
