How far along: 20 weeks 0 days
Baby's size: Banana, 10 inches long weighing about 10.5 oz.Baby's Development: The babies hearts can now be heard with a stethoscope instead of a Doppler. The babies are starting to sleep in subtle cycles and possibly favorite positions.
Gender: It has been confirmed, (2) girls, Ali & Sadie and (1) boy, Ray.
Weight gain: 22lbs (scale battery died, how convenient) the belly has popped!
Maternity clothes: I am quickly outgrowing maternity items I purchased. Shirts are now getting a little short so I'm not really sure what I'm going to be wearing in another month.
Stretch marks: Nope
Belly button in or out: In, but flat and sensitive.
Wedding ring on or off: Half on, I swelled pretty good at the pool this weekend and wasn't sure the ring would come off. Today, our office is warm so I took my engagement ring off and put it on my necklace.
Sleep: I may have slept a total of 3 hours last night between being hot and waking up, peeing, flopping around...
Symptoms: Breathing is probably the big one now. I have pressure on my chest and I have to keep a good posture in my chair or I have trouble breathing. The rest are mostly the same with the ligament pain, it is a constant and more after walking.
Food cravings: None really, everything tastes pretty good!
Food aversions: This is always random, nothing specific.
What I miss: Hanging out at the pool without a care in the world. Saturday I was not so comfortable in any seat and then tried to coordinate my pee break with my drink break to reduce walking.

Movement: I can feel lots of thumps and turns in my belly but now I am feeling to see if you can feel it from the outside. Yesterday I think I could feel two kicks on the outside.
Mood: Mostly ok, I think I am a little overwhelmed by work stuff and being off. I just keep telling myself I will figure it out, no worries!
Best moment this week: This week represents the longest I have ever been pregnant. I delivered Myka at 20 weeks in 2005 after SCH for months. So I actually can picture how big my babies are right now, they are a bit bigger than the progress report above. They are more like 11 oz and 12 inches long. When you think about that, my belly isn't so big.
Looking forward to: Kyle is working on the beds more this week with his dad's assistance. I have to say they are a little confusing since I can't seem to find the hole that the instructions reference... My cousin Abby gets married Saturday too so I will get to visit Campbellsville. A little nervous about being an hour and a half away from home but I have to relax, it really isn't that far.
