20 Weeks (and a Birthday Wish)


Here I am at 20 weeks -

We went to the doctor today for our 20 week ultrasound. Good news is that the baby is 14oz with a strong healthy heartbeat, bad news is that at this point in my pregnancy an average baby is more like 10oz and mom has to deliver this big baby if it keeps on growing at this rate! I guess I'll take that any day of the week so long as I continue to hear good news at my doctors visits. :)

At 20 weeks I am feeling really good. The baby is moving all the time and I can feel the tiny little movements which sends me over the moon every time I feel them. My belly is finally starting to grow, but it's kind of funny because it is bigger/shows more when I am laying down. Is that odd to anyone else? My biggest pregnancy symptom is still insomnia and so I feel like I am a walking zombie half of the time, but I guess there again I'll count my blessings that it's insomnia and not a laundry list of other things.

On another happy note, Jeremy is turning 34 tomorrow! Here's to wishing him a wonderful year full of happiness, prosperity and new joys. I am a lucky lady to have such a good man to call my husband and share all of life's joy's with! It just keeps on getting sweeter....
