20 Weeks

I'm halfway there, halfway to meeting my new little bundle. We had a rough start but I have definitely been feeling much better the past month or so! I am beginning to get some of those common pregnancy ailments. My sciatic nerve is beginning to act up which I knew it would, it always does with my pregnancies. It will get progressively worse, when I get further I will have times that I have to take a minute and let it pass before I can walk, hopefully that's not the case when i'm having to chase down one of my littles. And last night I got hit hard with heartburn and it has continued today. Tums made me sick when I was pregnant with Evan and I haven't been able to stand them since so I may have to fine an alternative medicine for heartburn. Then last is Geographic Tongue, weird name I know. It is just like these painful areas on your tongue and it is more common in pregnancy, had it with the last 2....weird!

20 Weeks

I did have an appointment today along with a sonogram.....I am weak! I had planned on not finding out the sex of this baby and up until a week or so ago I had no problem with waiting but as my sono got closer it was just driving me nuts so we found out! It's a ................well I won't make it that easy for you, give me some guesses and maybe I will let you know! The baby's heartbeat has been consistently in the 150's, it's an active little baby.....I feel it moving all the time. Jeane said the placenta is in the back so I will feel lots of movement, even on the sonogram it was wiggling all around. With Evan my placenta was in front so it was kind of a cushion so I didn't feel as much. I hate my weight, I started out heavier with this baby then any other baby but I seem to be doing okay and have only gained 11 lbs so hopefully I can keep it fairly low.....we'll see!!!!!! I am pretty out there but that includes this baby and lots of leftovers from the others.....baby is weighing about 10 ounces.

So if you all want to know what this baby is then give me some guesses......if I get enough then I just may share the news. Like I said baby's heartrate has been in the 150's, so far we have a pattern of girl, boy, girl, boy.....do you think the pattern is broken or does it continue?????  I already went and bought a few color specific items.....too excited, just couldn't wait!!!!!
