20 Weeks Pregnant with Rebekah Jo



How far along? 20 weeks and 1 day!

Baby's size?  Mango (6.5 inches, 10 ounces) But at my appointment last Friday, she was measuring at 11 ounces!

Gender? It's a baby girl! Rebekah Jo!

Maternity clothes? I've mainly been wearing my maternity clothes lately, just to look a little nicer... But I can still rock the regular athletic shorts, tank tops, and some dresses.

Weight Gain? I'm adding this back in for now, but I'm not weighing in weekly. So far I'm up 6 lbs, but my doctor said not to be shocked if I gain 6-12 pounds in the next 4 weeks. I sure hope not!!!
Stretch marks? No new ones yet. 

Belly button in or out? In

Sleeping? I've been sleeping pretty good lately! ::knock on wood::

Foods I'm loving? Anything with beef! Current favorites are burgers, steak, grilled/roasted veggies, and corn on the cob with butter and lemon pepper! Chinese food is also a huge favorite!! Lettuce wraps from Pei Wei are delicious!!!

Foods I'm hating? Nothing really!

Best moment this week? Getting two ultrasounds on two different days! Plus celebrating my birthday and getting sweet Elizabeth back from Gammie and Pop's house!

Movement? Yes, I for sure feel her nightly while I'm trying to go to sleep. I found out I have anterior placenta, which means I probably won't feel her as much as I felt the other kiddos. Definitely makes me feel more relieved to know she's ok, though!

What I'm looking forward to? Alan is going to paint the nursery next week while the kids and I are visiting my MeMaw! He's also going to refinish the built-in desk in Rebekah's room, which we're going to use as her changing table! And I'm definitely looking forward to spending lots of time in my parent's pool! Hopefully I'll come home with a bit of a tan!

What I'm missing? Not too much at this point!

Symptoms? Frequent potty breaks, exhaustion, food cravings/aversions

Milestones? We're halfway there! Although, if I'm lucky, I only have about 18 weeks to go. It's going so fast! Also, 4 weeks until viability! Can't believe that's almost here!

Emotions? Pretty good this week!
