20 Week Update

Date: January 18, 2011
How far along: 20 weeks and 4 days
Total weight gained: I don't think I've gained any weight this week...so I'm still at 4.7 lbs.
Sleep: My sleep has been all out of whack this week.  With the 2 hour delays and vacationing at the beach for 2 days/1 night...I'm just grateful to be getting back on a normal schedule by the end of the week - hopefully.
Best moment of the week:  We finally have some stuff for baby!  Kevin and I went to the mall and ended up in Baby Gap - they had such good stuff on sale!  Plus, his sister got us some baby stuff for Christmas that we just got on Saturday. :)
Movement:  I feel a lot of movement whenever I usually eat...which is really funny.  Because I'm student teaching, I usually eat breakfast around 6:45 AM, lunch around 12 PM, and dinner around 7 or 8 PM.  That's when the baby starts to flutter around a ton!
Food Craving:  Ice.  Ice cream.  Snow Cones.  Anything frozen, really.  Hasn't changed in a week (except now I want more chocolate)!
Food Aversions:  Beef.  The idea of eating beef makes me sick to my stomach, still.  I don't know if this is ever going to fix itself.
Morning Sickness: None.
Gender:  BOY!!!!!!!
Maternity clothes:  I'm grateful for the high belly band that comes with all the maternity pants.  It's so comfortable!
Symptoms:  Fatigue and some moodiness (not just in a pissy way...but in an emotional, sad way too)
What I miss: I still don't have my car back...
What I'm looking forward to:  Holding my baby <3  I'm excited about my baby shower(s)
Weekly wisdom:  Look for baby clothes on clearance.  They're still brand new and you could luck up like I did and get a jacket for $4.50 when it was originally $30!
Milestones:  Baby is now covered in vernix (white fuzzy stuff) and the genitals are fully formed!
Approximate size of baby: a canteloupe
