Bon Jovi is running through my head right now. "Whoa, we're halfway there, whoa-oh! Living on a prayer!" I can't beleive that it's half done. I have at most 19 weeks to go (only 19 because I'll have a repeat c-section no later than 39 weeks.) I am just so amazed at how time seems to be flying. My little girl will be here before I know it.
So here's what is going on this week:
Congrats! You almost reached the halfway point. Making it to 20 weeks probably feels pretty darn good. After all, your energy’s high and as long as your partner is up for it, things are probably happening between the sheets. Of course, it wouldn’t be pregnancy if you weren’t experiencing some annoying symptoms. Right now, it’s likely swelling, heartburn and leg cramps, but all of that probably feels insignificant now that you’ve got ultrasound photos of your rapidly developing baby. How cute is that nose? If you found out baby’s sex, you’re in a completely new mindset, are we right? Now, those baby names you’re throwing out are more likely to end up as baby’s, and when you find yourself in a baby store, those little blue or pink outfits aren’t just adorable, they’re must-haves. And since now you can add clothes and other boyish or girlish things to your wish list, week 20 is the time you probably want to start putting together your baby registry too. Happy shopping!
your baby's the size of a cantaloupe!
Baby weighs about 10.2 ounces and measures about 6.5 inches. She's still got a lot of growing to do though. Can you believe you're halfway done?
your baby at 20 weeks
She's got working taste buds.
Now, she's gulping down several ounces of amniotic fluid each day -- that's significantly more than before.
