WOOHOO! we are officially HALF BAKED today, which means that we are halfway through the pregnancy. it also means we still have a loooong 20 weeks to go.
also? BELLY. no denying that there's a little pickle in there now!
don't mind the Bear blur at the bottom. he's nosy. |
how far along?
20 weeks.
how big is the baby?
Ronin is now the size of a cantaloupe (whaaaaat?!) he is measuring about 6.5 inches long and weighs about 10.2 ounces. he is gulping down several ounces of amniotic fluid a day and he has working taste buds.
total weight gain:
ugh, I seriously have no idea what's going on. I stepped on the scale last night and I was DOWN 2lbs again. I guess he's taking all the weight, but it still makes me feel like I'm not doing something right.
sleep:
eh, on and off. sometimes I just have a hard time staying asleep. other times, I can't get comfortable. I will be buying a body pillow soon.
best moment of the week:
finding out that little baby Ronin Q is super healthy (and has a weenis!) at our anatomy scan. I still can't believe he's a boy, but I couldn't be more thrilled. also, I felt movement last week for the first time (from the inside). I can't wait for Sean to be able to feel it on the outside.
food cravings:
pickles. this kid will be nicknamed after my ridiculous craving.
food aversions:
nothing at all.
symptoms:
the same old pelvic pain and constipation.
BOY! :D
most looking forward to:
feeling him squirm around in there some more! he's been lazy lately. I'm also starting to look at different nursery ideas now that we know he's a he.
what I miss right now:
nothing. life is perfect.
next appointment:
April 19th.
