20 weeks Pregnancy Update

Here is my update for week 20! (Although, Im 21 weeks now)

How far along?   20 weeks

How big is the peanut?    The size of a banana 

Total weight gain/loss?   20lbs

Maternity clothes?  Yep! But I have always hated maternity pants so I have been trying to mostly wear long shirt dresses with leggings to avoid having to wear the pants

Sleep? ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. Im already so uncomfortable that sleeping has become bad. I have GERD and horrible indigestion so I cannot lay down . I have to sleep basically sitting up, or I will wake up feeling like my food is in my throat ready to come out if I so much as gag. Lately my hips hurt so I am switching from my left to right side and back and forth allllllllllll night long! Ugh

Morning sickness?  Yep. Its not consistently bad or consistently good, but its definitely there. It comes at all different times. But, I can say that I do feel like Im controlling it pretty well. I havent thrown up at all. But, it makes eating horrible and since I have to eat every 1.5..well...its just  no fun

Best moment this week?   Feeling the baby move soon much one night. I didn't even try to ignore it. I just laid there poking and playing with him

Symptoms?  Exhaustion, morning sickness, tender boobs, fire nipples, round ligament pain, hip pain, insomnia, increased appetite but no appetite,

Food cravings?  SWEET TEA! Canteloupe, soul food, donuts, Milky Way (Midnight) candy bar, 

Food aversions?   Ground beef.

Gender?  BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Labor signs?   No, but at around 3 months I started having Braxton Hicks. Already smh. I usually get them around 4.5 /5 months pregnant. I am a little surprised that they've come this early. Lately the BH contractions have been hurting. Im also having lots of vaginal pressure and swelling already too. Should be a fun 3rd trimester!

Belly button in or out?  In. pretty flat right now

Movement? Yep. Definitely feeling the little squish all over the place now. He is like an octopus. I can feel him all over. Even at the top of my belly and in my rib cage already

What I miss? Everything about not being pregnant lol


What I'm looking forward to?   Prepping for a new baby boy

Here is my 20 pregnant belly
