oh baby | twenty weeks
how far along? | 20 weeks {we are halfway- yay!!!}
due date: january 14, 2016
baby’s size | baby is the size of a banana . size: well… according to ‘the bump’ app, baby is supposed to be around 10.2 oz. however, last week we learned that he’s a big boy! he was already 14 oz. then. let’s just say my husband was 10 lbs 4 oz. at birth and a wrestler in high school … plus, boys on my dad’s side are very tall. so pray for me.
gender | a baby boy!!
{hoping to continue to share my baby boy photo inspirations with you each week!}
feeling | i feel really good but am just very, very tired from teaching {and standing almost eight hours straight a day- as a result, my feet are usually throbbing all.night.long!} but it’s so worth it- knowing our boy is healthy overcomes everything else.
maternity clothes | i can still wear a lot of my clothes/am up two pounds at this point… but sometimes my regular clothes become extrememly tight and start to hurt my stomach. i am currently looking for sales/clearances to hopefully purchase some school clothes! i would love cute/comfortable options to get me through teaching daily.
workouts | a few walks
sleep | i have been crashing and sleeping very soundly… except for one/two potty breaks- but all is good.
cravings | anything pumpkin, citrus, peaches, strawberry ice cream, water
miss anything | sleeping on my stomach {i literally pick myself up with my arms- similar to a yoga pose- when i need to switch positions!} i am getting pretty good at it though- upper body exercises throughout the night! 🙂
next appointment | friday, september 18 {i will be 23 weeks}

I feel you on the big babies!!! My husband is 6'4" and was a wrestler and an offensive lineman. Surprisingly though I weighed more than he did at birth. I was 9 lbs and he was 8 something I think. My little one is due in just 4 weeks (!!!) and has been consistently measuring 1-2 weeks ahead. Our last ultrasound 2 weeks ago showed her weighing 5 lbs 11 oz already, but thankfully they said the ultrasound weights are usually over estimated by about a pound. I just hope she's able to wear the couple of newborn outfits I have at least once each.
