It's a....

How far along: 20 weeks! HALF WAY!

Gender:  GIRL! 

Symptoms: Lots of pressure in my ribs

Weight gain: 14 pounds *shocked emoji face*

Maternity clothes: If I have to be wearing pants, they are maternity.

Stretch marks: Still none

Belly button in or out: Still an innie

Sleep: So many pillows and pregnancy insomnia 

Best moment this week: The anatomy ultrasound! Oh, that was so much fun. Ben got to see the baby's heartbeat for the first time. She was not a fan of the ultrasound. She stayed curled up in a ball most of the time and kept moving around. Ben was even trying to talk her into cooperating. Eventually we got a few good pictures which I will share below. She really liked showing us her hands and had them by her face most of the ultrasound. The ultrasound tech was awesome and gave us a ton of pictures. She said she really enjoys working on skinny moms. Nothing like a little confidence boost when you feel like a hippo. 

Worst moment this week: Finding out that I have a low lying placenta. Booooo! 

Miss anything: Having a drink on a Friday night. 

Movement: This little lady has been moving and grooving all week. She even gave Dad a few big kicks last night while we were watching Game of Thrones. Perhaps she's channeling her inner Aria.

Cravings: Strawberry Milkshake all the way.

Queasy or sick: A little bit. Mostly due to the increasing pressure in my rib area. Makes me feel like I ate way too much.

Looking forward to: Baby's first Mother-Daughter cookie party next weekend! I can't wait till she can participate out of utero next year!
