Week 20 survey

How far along: 19 weeks + 5 days
Total weight gain/loss: According to my scale this morning, no weight gain this week! Woohoo!
Maternity clothes:Normal clothes are still working for me. Hopefully for another 3 1/2 weeks!
Stretch marks: Nope
Sleep: Can't complain. I've been having some seriously weird, vivid dreams lately though! Anything from getting extensions in my long hair, to terrorists letting out wild animals in a zoo, to kissing a cute guy that I saw in a movie - and that's just a sample of ONE night this past week! Weird.
Best moment in the last week: My godson, David, was checking out the new room that we're preparing for baby. He then said, "When the baby is here and I come on vacation (to him, that's spending the night), I'll stay here and make sure it doesn't cry."
Movement: Nothing really strong yet. Random tickles to say, "Hey, I'm here". Maybe baby is just being nice to me for now. :)
Gender: Hmmm...what does the survey say?
Food Cravings: Unfortunately, too many sweets at the moment. I also think that I shouldn't be allowed to buy and keep ice cream in my freezer from now on. If it's there, I want to eat it.
Belly Button in or out: In
What I miss: Clear skin. It could be much worse, so I really shouldn't whine, but it's annoying. I guess I can be thankful that it's not summer and I don't have to show too much skin.
What I am looking forward to: Getting a little organized. I feel like I have a million things I need to think about and take care of within the next few weeks.
Weekly Wisdom: Drinking a lot is not always as easy at it seems. If I keep a huge bottle of water on my desk at work, I seem to do better. I also begin and end my day with a big glass of water now. What I often forget is that every liquid is good - my big glass of milk that I usually enjoy daily, a bowl of warm soup, a cup of tea, etc. all count.
Milestones: 20 full weeks on Saturday! Half-way mark!
Baby Brain Moment of the Week: Still doing pretty good - I think. ;)
Belly-button ring Status: Still in, and I don't think it looks weird yet. Depending on what I'm wearing, it is becoming more noticeable now, though.
Labor Signs: Hopefully not until the end of May or so!
Weekly Belly Pic: Hot off the press! My friend was nice enough to take a picture of me in her office since my camera is still not functioning. I'm going to visit a camera shop tonight to see what they say.

  1. You're so beautiful! And I do have a guess for baby, but I'm going to wait to share until further along in your pregnancy...there are many signs I look for to guess boy or girl, and I've only heard a couple, so...I'm going to be patient ;) Hehe. Can't wait to see you in Feb!

    Love, Jess
