20 Weeks and Counting...

I had my 20 week Dr. appointment yesterday and everything is looking good! I would say I definitely "popped" last week and am starting to look "prego"! I feel like a whale, but the Dr. says I need to be gaining more weight! I may not have gained in the beginning, like most first time moms, but I have gained 5 lbs in 4 weeks, I don't think this baby is starved! Our little peanut is extremely active! I feel him/her a couple times a day, and at VERY consistent times, 10:30am and 4:30pm! Oh...and I had a dream Wednesday night that Gerber Baby is a Boy! I have had 4 or 5 where the end result was boy and 1 that ended with girl! It's probably because everyone I hang out with thinks Lil' Gerbs is a boy, I guess it's time to start a tally! Baby is approximately 10 1/2 inches long and weighs about 3/4 of a pound. What's really crazy is that I've taken care of babies about that size!
Weight gain this month: 5 lbs
Weight gain so far: 5 lbs
Baby Bump 18"
Heart Rate 154 (it has ALWAYS been 154)

Mom and I ordered the crib and dresser last weekend, with Andrew's approval of course, and it's already in! Perfect timing with only a week before the BIG MOVE! (Hopefully the last move ever!) We are so excited to get moved and start enjoying the perks of small town living again! One set back, our carpet won't be in until the first week of September (go figure), so we won't be able to get things situated until then! But Dad took off so him and Mom can help next weekend and last time we moved, it was only Andrew and myself so we are taking advantage of them! (Plus I get "scolded" everytime I go to lift something semi heavy so I don't think we would get away with no help!) Next week will be busy, so hopefully I will get around to posting an update once we get settled in!
