21 Weeks!! More than Halfway There!!

Ok, I admit it, I've been a slacker. I guess I feel like I should only post if something interesting is going on in the pregnancy. Well, I reached the halfway point last week 20, and here is what I look like now (21 weeks):








Yes, I definitely look pregnant at this point! I must say that the pregnancy has been pretty uneventful, which is awesome. I did my NT scan and sequential screening about 7 weeks ago, and everything came back great. I had been bothering Mark in the ER to do some bootleg ultrasounds, which were totally fun. We finally decided that since the ER seems to be getting more and more crowded, that we should get an at home doppler. Really, when we went for the under the table ultrasounds ; - ), it was just to make sure that Baby Blob's heart was still pumping away. Needless to say, I listen to my belly every day!

I've been keeping busy reading Baby Bargains, and making my list of what we need to get. I've made some good progress. And, as soon as we find out what we are having, I can start looking at gender specific nursery décor. I will have to do another entry with pictures of some of the things we want to get : - )

As for symptoms in the last month or so, I have been suffering from shortness of breath, neck pain, bloating, heartburn, and the latest affliction, charlie horses...but all in all, it hasn't been too bad (I swear)!

Oh, and the anatomy scan is on Monday. I can't wait!!! We are dying to find out just exactly what Baby Blob is!
