I think Bon Jovi said it best "Whooooooa we're half way there, whoa - oa livin' on a prayer". We are halfway through the pregnancy and I couldn't be happier. I feel great, we've checked a bunch of things off the to do list and we're having a baby boy! Plus, everyone keeps saying "I thought you'd be bigger by now" (including Daddy-to-be) so I guess that's a good sign. This weekend we are going to continue our name search and narrow down the daycare list so we can start touring. Tomorrow night we're going to a Halloween Party at Grandpa Don and Grandma Teresa's house.
Here's what BabyCenter.com has to say about Week 20:
Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (The way your baby is measured changes now.) He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper (although some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
Cravings over the last week: Mexican food, gummi savers and I can't get enough water!
We will post another belly shot this weekend.
