20 Weeks

Hello, belly!

How far along?
20 Weeks

Total Weight Gain: 1 lb (+9) since pre-pregnancy (and I swear, all of it is going straight to the belly!)

Maternity Clothes? Maternity pants are becoming a MUST. Unfortunately I only have 3 pairs and 2 of them are jeans, so I really need to do some shopping.

Stretch Marks? Nope. Body butter application to 3 times a day.

Sleep? Sleeping great, actually. However, I'd really, REALLY like an extra 3 hours every morning.

Best Moment This Week: Reaching the mid-point of pregnancy; finding out gender!

Movement: Strong and consistent. I'm feeling kicks and not just flutters now.

Food Cravings: Pickled Radishes (if you have a lead on where I can buy these in bulk, I will be forever indebted to you!). French Fries. Frozen Yogurt.

Gender: It's a BOY!!!

Labor Signs: Nope

Belly Button - In or Out? In

What I miss: Raw sushi. I would give anything for a slab of ahi right now. And wine. Not alcohol, but the taste of real wine, not the alcohol-free stuff. I don't forsee either of these changing in the next 5 months, but I've had a couple sips of wine to feed the craving.

What I am looking forward to: Putting together the nursery.

Weekly Wisdom: Maternity yoga is god-sent.

Milestones: 1/2 way mark!

I said last time I'd return to knitting content, and I'm about 90% there. Photographed some FO's and cleaned up Ravelry, so I'm hoping to blog them tomorrow!

A boy! I was sure you were having a girl - no idea why I was sure, but I was! (And my verification work is dolliz, which seems like a girl word, for sure.)
