Half Baked!

Omigod, how am I halfway there already? AHHH!
 
How far along: 20 weeks, 3 days



Physical symptoms: I officially have a bump! There is no hiding it anymore. I'm also starting to feel movement which is so so exciting.

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I have no idea. I suppose I should weigh myself at some point this week.

Maternity clothes: I bought one maternity shirt but am still holding out on pants. My belly band is amazing and I don't know what I'd do without it. That being said, I am going shopping for maternity pants tomorrow...and I already had to buy new bras. I went from a 32B to a 34C...WTF?

Stretch marks: On my boobs. It never even crossed my mind that I would get stretch marks there!

Sleep: Ok. I've been randomly waking up at 5am lately, which is especially annoying considering my alarm goes off at 6:45. Ugh.

Best moment last week: NBR: M got a new job!! I am so ridiculously excited and relieved that we can start looking at houses and that there is an end in sight to this whole living with my mum thing. It's worked out for the past couple of months, but I'd really rather not live with her much longer if I can help it!

Movement: Loads! I love it, but I'll admit it's a tad distracting. All I want to do is lay down and feel it move...so I'm not being terribly productive these days.

Food cravings: I love food. All food. Last week I had deep fried pickles three times...and I'm considering getting some tonight.

Gender:  I'm still thinking girl

Labor signs: Nada.

Belly button: Weird-looking. I've never had a round belly button in my life.

What I miss: Wine, and rum & coke on a Friday night. This was a particularly challenging week at work and I would have loved to come home and have a drink at the end of the day. I also put away a bunch of clothes that no longer fit me this week...sad!

What I am looking forward to: House hunting! I am seriously so pumped. I can't wait to get started on the nursery.

Milestones: My belly is huge, and baby/skeletor is moving around a ton.
