20 Week Bump Date!


How far along? 20 weeks 6 days
Total weight gain: I have gained a total of 8 lbs. so far. 
Maternity clothes? Yoga pants and maternity tights have been my go to so far. I have noticed that my pre-pregnancy shirts are starting to get a little too small for this growing tummy! 
Stretch marks? Just the same ones on my lady friends and a couple on my left thigh. I have been applying Cocoa Butter lotion like a maniac each night.  
Sleep: It takes me a few minutes to fall asleep. Once I have fallen asleep, I sleep pretty well. I do get up in the middle of the night to use the ladies room and then fall right back to sleep. 
Best moment this week: Ryan feeling/seeing Caleb move. Ryan puts his hands on my tummy and baby boy starts kicking away. Caleb starts moving and kicking when Ryan rest his head on top of my tummy. It's the most AMAZING moments!! :)
Miss Anything? Not really! 
Movement: Tons and tons of movement 
Food cravings: Still craving a Dairy Queen strawberry sundae
Anything making you queasy or sick: As of now nausea has disappeared and lets hope it doesn't return!  
Gender: IT'S A BOY!!
Labor Signs:  No labor signs for a long while
Symptoms: Still getting some pains on my right hand side. I hurts at times when I cough or sneeze. The doctor has been saying it's round ligament pain but when I got for my 22 week check up I will have her check on it. 
Belly Button in or out? It is still slowing turning into an outtie!! 
 Engagement Ring on or off?  It's still on!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!! It is getting closer to meeting our baby boy and I can't wait to start purchasing stuff for him. 
Looking forward to:
Hoping to be making some crafts and doing some more sewing soon. Ryan and I plan on sewing some more blankets, pillows, burp cloths, and other items. We just need to go out and buy the fabric and patterns to get started. I'm also looking forward to clothes and other baby items for Caleb. 

Thoughts
This past 20 weeks have been so great. I am so excited to be carrying this sweet little baby boy and I'm looking forward to many more doctors appointments. I get so nervous at any ache and pain but who wouldn't after everything we have been through. I just pray that this pregnancy continues going smooth and that we will be able to meet our sweet baby boy when it's time to deliver. I am so scared of the worst, but I can't help myself after loosing Isabella and having a healthy pregnancy. I just have trust in the doctors and continue to ask as many questions when it's time for an appointment.
