20 Weeks
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Baby Ahrens
How far along: 20 weeks. We’re half way there baby! Also, updated due date: May 22, 2012.
Musings on Weekly Photo: Love our new chalkboard decal via Amazon. Perfect for apartment dwellers like ourselves. Kindly ignore the strategic cropping of all the crap that is STILL unpacked in the nursery.
Weight Gain: All shall be revealed at our January 12th appointment. I have a feeling it’s going to be a doozie as I may or may not have indulged willy nilly during the holidays.
Maternity Clothes: I’ve been using the magical Belly Band for my pants up until now. Over our break I stopped in to Motherhood Maternity and picked out a few pairs of pants and a top. I’ve been making my usual shirts work but based on this photo, it looks like it’s time to size up!
Fruit of the Week / Size of Baby: Large Heirloom Tomato! Our ultrasound technician also told us he was weighing in at 12 ounces.
Movement: Finally feeling some flutters in there!
Cravings: Nothing crazy here. I’ll eat macaroni and cheese any time of day and frozen yogurt is really hitting the spot.
Anti-Highlight of the Week: Almost passing out at our ultrasound. I was apparently laying too flat on my back and pinching my Vena Cava and restricting blood flow to my brain. A little scary!!
Highlights of the Week: Finding out that we are expecting a baby BOY!
