There wasn't much to update between those weeks. We found out we were having a boy which I already posted about. We just got back from a cruise 2 days ago, so most of my time was prepping for that so there wasn't much noticed. I felt flutters here and there, but nothing too distinct!
I did have a check up before the cruise and I had lost 4 pounds!! whoop whoop! I did really well with watching what I ate because I knew I would be eating a lot on the cruise and would be gaining the weight back. I had all the genetic testing done and that all came back perfect!
How far along: 20 weeks, 2 days
Baby Growth: Tallen 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 – about the length of a small banana. He is swallowing more and producing meconium.

My Symptoms: I'm doing pretty good as far as symptoms go. Have more energy even though I could pretty much nap everyday. That is just me.
My boobs are ginormous! I hate them!
Starting to pee a lot more frequently!
I have been feeling movements here and there, but nothing very strong really. I do have an anterior placenta so this plays a huge roll in why I don't feel much, but he is definitely a very active and moving baby!
Gender: Boy!!
Weight gain: At my appointment a few weeks ago I had lost 4 pounds!! I knew I had a cruise coming and I would gain the weight back and I did! From my last appointment to my appointment Monday I gained 6 pounds!! I only count it as 2 pounds though because i'm only 2 above this pre-pregnancy weight. I really want to make sure I don't gain much!
Maternity clothes: I definitely need them.. bottom line.
Stretch marks: those old ones are there still.
Belly button in or out: In
Sleep: It has been pretty good lately
Best moment this week: Our vacation, our ultrasound and seeing his cute self! Plus we have a cold front starting tonight so the high will only be in the 70s! Fall is coming <3 <3
Worst moment this week: There is a strong category 5 hurricane coming at us...
Miss anything: I miss being skinny.
Movement: Starting to get more and more lately! My placenta is anterior though so it makes it harder to feel movements.
Cravings: Still can't say I've been craving anything. I for sure have a better appetite than I did, but nothing that is like I really want or need that.
Queasy or sick: Been feeling great!
Wedding rings on or off: On
Looking forward to: Fall and cooler weather! All of the holidays, getting the nursery finished, planning a 3D ultrasound and maternity photos!
Belly Pictures: I have no clue where the 20 week photo went, but here is 16 & 18!
16 weeks
18 weeks with deodorant marks :/
