21 Weeks
How Far Along: 21 Weeks
Size of baby: the size of a carrot (10 1/2 inches long) and three-quarters of a pound
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Ugh... up several pounds, but probably not much of that is baby, more of me eating like a horse! :)
Maternity Clothes: I remembered this week that I have a pair of khaki pants that were too big for me, but of course, now they work really well with this baby belly! Glad I remembered that since I'm still at that akward stage where my regular pants are too tight, but I'm really not big enough for maternity pants yet.
Gender: It's a BOY!!! Anthony and I haven't really talked about names anymore yet, but I definitely have it narrowed down to 2 in my mind, and probably 1, because I love the meaning of one of them.
Movement: Feeling lots of kicking and moving every day. Can't wait till "outsiders" can feel it too. :)
Sleep: Still sleeping pretty well. Still able to sleep on my stomach. Usually waking up once to pee during the night.
What I miss: Nothing, but I know I will miss sleeping on my belly eventually, so I am doing as much of that as possible!
Cravings: Nothing lately.
Symptoms: None
Best Moment this week: Just loving feeling him kick and move so much now.

20 Weeks
How Far Along: 20 Weeks
Size of baby: the size of a banana
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Probably up a pound or two from original weight...
Maternity Clothes: Yes. Isn't it funny how much changes in a week? Last week I was not wearing them, but my jeans are just totally uncomfortable now, so I have moved on to maternity pants. Regular shirts are still okay though.
Gender: It's a BOY!!!
Movement: I feel him move and kick every day now.
Sleep: I just can't say enough how much I love sleep. I think a lot about how much I enjoy sleeping through the night. I am treasuring it while I still can. All that being said, I am sleeping just fine still.
What I miss: Nothing, but I know I will miss sleeping on my belly eventually, so I am doing as much of that as possible!
Cravings: Nothing lately.
Symptoms: None
Best Moment this week: My belly really starting to "pop". I love being pregnant, and looking pregnant!

Paci-holic
Let me preface this story by telling you the "paci rules" in our house. Bailey is only allowed to have her paci when we are in the car or when she is sleeping. She knows these rules. I keep one paci in her diaper bag for when we leave, and the rest stay in her bed while she is not using them.
Earlier today, Bailey was in her room and she was being very quiet. I went to go check on her to make sure she was okay/wasn't up to no good. Here is what I saw when I went to her room....
See the legs behind the rocking chair?
Head behind the curtain.
Notice what's in her lap?
And there she sat, my little paci-holic who needed a paci fix. :)
