20 weeks!!


Wow....20 weeks down. We have made it to the half way point. Now that I look back it seems to have gone by so fast so far. I have been feeling good for the most part. I have been having some really bad back pain this past week. I finally broke down and got my first massage, a prenatal one and it was so worth it!! I always thought I would hate getting a massage so I have never gotten one but this pain was so bad I figured it couldn't be worse than that and it was oh so nice! The pain came right back the minute I got back up but it was nice for the hour it was gone. The massage therapist recommended a back brace so I got one and it seems to help a little bit. I think my issues have to do with the way the baby is positioned right now. My belly was bigger the past couple weeks and now it is small again so the baby must be moving around in there and found a nice spot near my back. I guess we will see this week at our ultrasound.

I am so excited and anxious to have the ultrasound this week. I really want to see that the baby is healthy and know if its a he or a she. I think the majority of family and friends think pink but both Dustin and I were thinking blue so we will see. We will be driving to LA Friday night to have a little get together Saturday to reveal the big secret. We are excited to see everyone.

The baby now weighs about 10.5 ounces and is about 10 inches from head to heel. (the length of a banana). Wow in 20 weeks the baby went from a seed to a banana. We are so excited to see the changes at this ultrasound from the last one!!
