Pregnancy Update: 20 Weeks - Halfway!!!!

How Far Along:

July 2nd, 2013 - 20 Weeks

Halfway!!!

Maternity Clothes:

Starting to pull out a few things and put away some of my smaller things. I need to go shopping for some new maternity things. Most of my things from the past 2 pregnancies are worn out.

Best Moment This Month:

Finding out the baby is a BOY! James Alan Richardson. We're SOOOOOOOOOO excited.

Movement:

All of the time, but he's more of a wiggler instead of a full out flipper like the girls were.

Food Craving:

Anything sweet, please!

What I Miss:

It's getting hard for me to bend over. Good were the days when that was easy :)

Sleep:

Half and half. Some days I will sleep just fine. Others, I will lay in bed wide awake nearly all night long. Insomnia much?

What I Am Looking Forward To:

Shopping for and/or receiving baby boy things :)

Symptoms:

This is what I call "The Glory Time" of the pregnancy. I feel good. I like that I look pregnant instead of feeling fat. I'm not so big that I'm uncomfortable yet, and I just get to be excited for the baby. I love it! My back occasionally goes out of whack but other than that I'm doing GREAT! :)

And now some pictures from the ultrasound from my doctor's office

First time I've ever seen a 3D scan of any of my babies in utero. I teared
up a little. He was sucking his fingers the whole time. Too cute!

Cute profile :)

So even after the first ultrasound 2 weeks ago, I couldn't fully believe
that I was having a boy for 2 reasons: 1 - I've never had one before.
And 2 - I've had 2 friends that surprise birthed girls after having multiple
ultrasound techs tell them they were having boys. But I'm pretty sure you
can't get much clearer than this :)

Still sucking his fingers :)

So excited for Baby James!!!!!!
