21 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 21 weeks--- Over halfway there!
Size of baby: About 10 ounces and 6 1/2 inches from crown to rump, size of a small cantaloupe
Gender: A GIRL!!! No official name yet, but we will decide soon
Maternity Clothes: Yes for all bottoms and still wearing a few non-maternity shirts if they are long enough! I used to think when pregnant girls said they were ready to wear their normal clothes again that they were crazy but I am almost to that point! I am need variety and I have none with maternity clothes!
Weight gain: 10 pounds, I was worried that I wasn't gaining enough weight, but the OB said that the baby was still on track with her growth.
Movement: I feel flutters, but I am so ready to feel her kick regularly and for Sean to be able to feel her too
Sleep: It is hard to get comfortable now at night, I switch from my back to my side alot
Symptoms: Low back pain, sometimes my heart races, getting out of breath easy!
Cravings: Just eating a lot of everything! I am eating more than I did in the 1st trimester.
Best moment this week: Making it to the halfway mark!  I am so ready to meet our sweet girl!! Also, hearing her heartbeat at 149 bpm at our doctor's appointment.
 
*This photo is from 20 weeks, but I think it shows off the bump quite nicely.
