YAY!!! I did it! Over the half way mark, I cannot believe it. I know the second half will be the hardest, but I am just so happy to be over half way there. *Pictures are rough, when did I get so pale? Ick.
How far along? 21 weeks
Size of the baby? The length of a carrot, about a pound.
Maternity Clothes? Bella band for pants, skirts. No maternity tops yet.
Stretch Marks? Not yet. But, my mom had them and I hear they are hereditary, but she said hers went away fairly quickly. I’ve been using Palmer’s and Bio Oil several times a week.
Movement? YES! So cool!
Sleep? Still sleeping good.
Food Cravings? Nothing yet.
What I Miss: Same as past several weeks. ;)
Symptoms: OMW y’all. Let me just gripe for a second. First off, realize how thankful I am that I have had a fairly easy pregnancy thus far, no sickness ever… which was fabulous. BUT, oh but…my face is STILL broken out like a 12 year olds. My face has NEVER (not even when I was a 12 year old) been this bad. WHEN does it end? Thank the lord for Laura Mercier’s secret camouflage, what would I do without it?
Best Moment of the Week? We had our BIG 20 week ultrasound last week and it went WONDERFULLY! I was so nervous going into it, but baby girl looked perfectly healthy, which is SUCH a blessing.
Side Note: I still don’t really feel pregnant. I mean I am definitely showing, don’t get me wrong. But, it’s at the point right now I can still forget that I am. Ha! And yes, the flutters/quickening/kicks have definitely helped…but it still has not really sunk in that I am pregnant/about to be a momma! I hear a lot of people say it won’t really until you lay eyes on that precious bebe for the first time….it’s just so weird to me right now. Exciting, but surreal I guess is how I would describe it.
