Tomorrow my mom and I are flying out to Stef's to watch her 3 kids while her and John romance in Maui. I think this will either make or break me. So we'll see how strong I really am being prego.
And last but not least, I saw this survey a lot with some girls that were pregant and loved reading them so I wanted to do one too. Enjoy. Oh and my Birthday is next Friday the 10th just in case anyone wanted to send me soemthing :)
Happy LoVe MoNtH!
Almost 20 weeks
28 Weeks
How Far Along: 28 Weeks
Size of baby: 2-ish weeks ago she was 2 lbs. 1 oz.
Maternity Clothes: I put those off as long as I could, got a maternity shirt for Christmas which was the comfiest thing I've worn, so now it's all maternity pants and mix between regular and maternity shirts.
Gender: GIRL
Name: Thinking of 1 in particular.. :) Need a middle name
Movement: Lots of movement on my right side, feeling hiccups, and sometimes the movement gets uncomfortable especially when she thinks she's an Octopus or Ninja. Real funny girlfriend.
Sleep: Hard to fall asleep then I'm fine until Brody gets up at 4:30am everyday and I'm wide awake for about an hour after he's gone.. And Brody thinks I act like a bird when getting into bed and calls it "making my nest" because I move the blankets, pillows, and whatever else until I'm comfy. Therefore, calling it my nest makes sense I guess.
Cravings: Can't think of anything I'm dying for. Except today I made a special trip to the grocery store for some cottage cheese. Mix that with garlic salt and dip some salty chips in. YUM.
Symptoms: My laugh has definitely changed. Whenever I laugh really hard (of course I almost pee my pants) but the part where you're quiet and nothing comes out because you're laughing so hard, well I get all wheezy. So the other name Brody has given me is "Wheezy". I don't actually know if this is a symptom of pregnancy.. is it?
And my SI joint is not being very friendly.
Weird Things: I recieved my first set of stretch marks in a weird spot. On the sides of both my legs in the exact same spot.Not the places I thought I would get them.. T.M.I. for anyone? Sorry.
Worries: I've been hearing a lot of stories from random people saying they had their baby 5 weeks early (2 people to be exact). And I know a few girls who had their babies 3 months early.. That freaks me out.
Best Moment of the Week(s): When Brody can fill and SEE her moving.
Appointments This Week: Had my appointment 2 weeks ago. Did the glucose test and thinking it was fine since I haven't heard anything back yet. Getting 3D ultrasounds is awesome!
What I’m looking forward to: Baby Showers :) We have nothing for her yet.
Something I've Learned/Realized: When my sisters say you loose your brain when you're pregnant is an ACTUAL FACT. If I don't write something down I won't remember it. ever. I can tell a difference that I'm loosing it too and I hate it! I have a hard time remembering words and doing simple things. They say you never get it back either. oh boy.

You look as pretty as ever!! Thanks for posting this, its fun to hear I'm not alone in my craziness. :)
I love your update, that's so cleaver - I may have to copy this and give a lil update of my own ;)
I keep trying to get Kenley to feel the lil girl but they are so off sync. I can't wait for him to feel her and then SEE her. (Wow that's so exciting.) I'm glad to hear all is going well with you and your baby girl.
P.S. I've already started wearing flip-flops cuz my feet get so big and swollen during the day and I'm only 20 weeks!!!! Man, I'm gunna be HUGE at 40 weeks!
