How far along: 20 weeks, 1 days
Total Weight Gain: 18.5 lbs
Symptoms: Tired....like the kind of tired that makes you want to curl in fetal position and cry.
Stretch Marks: They have made their arrival in full force. So far only on the bottom of my belly.
Sleep: Not fantastic. I am having a harder time staying asleep and the middle of the night bathroom breaks seem to be getting more frequent.
Best Moment Last Week: Listening to the kicks with my fetal heart doppler and then seeing the doppler move on my tummy. I think we are getting close to feeling them from the outside!
Movement: They are getting much more active and I love it! I am feeling more purposeful kicks but I haven't been able to feel them with my hands from the outside.
Food Cravings: Chocolate cherrios.
What I Miss: Feeling rested
What am I looking forward to: Our first baby shower this weekend.
Milestones: Reaching 20 weeks! We are officially over the hump. Just 18 weeks left.
How is Daddy? Wonderful. He's done a great job of making me feel good about myself as this week has been one of those "holy crap I look like a cow" kind of weeks. He's been rubbing my back and belly which I LOVE!

I think these just make me look huge and fat...not really pregnant:
Can't believe there are 2 of those in there!
Maybe if your husband puts his head on your belly he'll get kicked in the ear like mine did! :)
ReplyDeleteNot looking fat, just more pregnant! And I think you are brave for charting your weight gain. After last week I can't do it.
You're looking fabulous!!! Love getting those updates. Sorry you're feeling so tired.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you have 2 babies in there- your belly looks great! I'm missing the sleep too and it's really irritating because I never even need to get up to go to the restroom. I just can't stay asleep! Hope you have a great shower!
ReplyDeleteAs always, you look amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I read your post title, I thought myself "If SHE'S 20 weeks, man, how far am I???" It's so impossible that you're 20 weeks already! Where has time gone?!?!
SO excited for your shower this weekend! Have a great time!
WOW 20 weeks! Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely looking pregnant!
It took a while to feel them on the outside for me, maybe you have a few more weeks but I bet you're close!
Yippee for 20 weeks! You great, pregnant, not fat. Have a fabulous time at your shower. How exciting!
ReplyDeletehooray for 20w! looking great pregnant! :)
