Baby's digestive system is busy creating meconium (a tarry black substance made of swallowed amniotic fluid, digestive secretion and dead cells), which will fill the first diaper after birth. And, speaking of the diaper situation... baby's genitals are now fully formed!How far along? 20 weeks!
Maternity clothes? Jeans I'm in full time. I have some shirts I can still wear though.
Stretch marks? Nope.
Sleep? I wake up about once a night now. Though, I don't always have to get up.
Best moment this week? There were so many moments to chose from! Getting in the changing table, painting the nursery, our hospital tour last night... But nothing compares to knowing that we have a healthy little BOY on his way!
Movement? Not yet. We found out at our anatomy ultrasound on Thursday that my placenta is in front of the baby, acting like a barrier for his kicks so it may be a while still before I feel anything. Though hello restless legs! Wow, my legs don't want to stay still anymore, especially at night.
Food cravings? I was back to Fritos and Easy Cheese! Dang it!
Gender? It's a BOY!
Labor signs? Nope.
What I miss? Pants will belt loops.
What I'm looking forward to? Being on the downhill side!
Weekly Wisdom: Be prepared to change your mind about where you want furniture to go in the nursery! I still have no idea!
Milestones: Hitting the halfway point, and we saw our boy again!
Emotions: Nothing really this week, no longer in a funk thank goodness!
Total weight gain/loss? Down 2 from last week, down 4 over all. When should I worry?
