20 Week Bump Date

20 weeks!

How far along: 20 WEEKS... 1/2 way!!!!  We get to meet our princess in 4 and a half months!!! 

Total weight gain: 5 pounds

Clothes:  Using the bellyband. I am still in my normal shirts and dresses but my pants are a bit uncomfortable buttoned. 

Sleep: I am having a major heart burn and acid reflux right before bed so a bottle of Tums has become our new bedroom decor. 

Cravings/Aversions: Water! I am always thirsty... Always! As far as food, I want red meat- steak and bacon. This is so unlike me! This little girl is 100% Jeffrey's mini-me. 

Symptoms:  heart burn and acid reflux... yuck! 

ENERGY:  I am tired, I am not going to lie, but I keep on plugging along! Jeffrey works from home next week so I am looking forward to extra help!

Exercise: 
Monday:Rest
Tuesday: Pilates
Wednesday: Pilates
Thursday: Barre
Friday: Walk/run 3 miles
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Walk/run 3 miles

Mood: I feel really blessed still. Is it all happy and rainbows... hahaha, NO! I would be lying if I said pregnancy was all "perfection". Am I excited and blessed? Of course, but I am tired and hormonal still and that is okay, it's normal. I am human after all. So it's all rainbows with some lightening. Welcome to pregnancy!

Movement: I have felt her off and on. It is the coolest most amazing feeling EVER! There is nothing like it in the entire world. 

Miss anything?  Not really. I miss my mom and my friends back home in Atlanta. I miss their support and love for me and baby girl! I miss Jeffrey being at home because he works in Kansas Monday-Thursday, but these are "life misses" not pregnancy misses. 

Best moment this week: Diving more in God's word and scripture. I have been having a hard time emotionally so going to the word was exactly what I needed. 

Looking forward to: Jeffrey being able to feel her kick and move.
