WOW I’m 20 weeks pregnant today!!! Halfway Point already! Time is flying. I guess with a 2 year old and a million events- I seem to be less focused on what is going on inside.
Though I must admit, it’s hard to forget I’m pregnant… as the belly is getting bigger, I am up and down at the bathroom a lot and the little wiggle worm inside is kicking away! 🙂
So today was my big ultrasound. And yes, we stuck to our plan and didn’t find out the sex! Everything looked wonderful which was a big sigh of relief and a big PRAISE THE LORD! Not that we assumed anything would be wrong but we know how delicate pregnancy can be and are very thankful that everything is going smoothly so far. My 20 week ultrasound was when we found out about ME’s condition last time, so as you can imagine it brought back those memories. But also good memories as we remember ME sucking her thumb and stuff!
This baby was on the move! Pictures were once again hard to get because of that. When I go back in 4 weeks for my regular appointment they are going to give me another ultrasound to measure some things they didn’t get to because the baby was moving around a bit. Growth was on track and matched with where I am in my pregnancy so that was good. The baby was moving its arms and legs a lot and was in a folded position where it’s feet were both up by his/her head and so were his/her hands. The placenta is posterior this time which explains why I felt it earlier and stronger this time around. With ME my placenta was in the front (anterior) and that muffled some of the earlier kicks… until she was big enough to punch and kick me around it… haha.
I have the ultrasounds labeled. (You might want to click on them to read/see them better and open them up bigger). They are the best shots we got of this little one right now. Andy and I are glowing today as we are so excited and are still in awe that our 2nd child is on it’s way.
