OK, I'm 20 weeks. Regular pregnancy is 40 weeks. That means I'm half done. 20 more weeks to go. I should be totally excited right??
On one hand, I want to see our pretty little baby girl! Her pretty eyes, (because seriously... my eyes, and Matt's eyes... make for some PRETTY eyes!) her cute little nose, and all 10 fingers and all 10 toes would be so great to see! I can't wait!
On the other hand, within 20 weeks, I'm going to be in labor... LABOR!!! Holy crap! Anyone who knows me, knows I have a VERY low tolerance for pain. That fact that certain things have to stretch to unnatural sizes, really freaks me out. my mom has been great in the way of her telling me about my birth, and my sisters, and my cousin's... but everyone is different! I watch Friends (the show) and I watch the fact that some people go HOURS in labor... It's really freaky.
Everyone says that feeling like this is normal. But I can't stress enough how much I DON'T LIKE PAIN!!!
Baby has been moving around quite a bit. This morning after I got out of the shower, and BabyGirl lest out this massive kick! It literally stopped me in my tracks! I laid down and she just kept walloping me! I looked down, and she was kicking a lot to the left of my belly button, and I watched my tummy jump! It wasn't big, but it was there! It was so crazy! But you after figure, the average baby at 20 weeks, is about 10 unches from head to toes, so she's going to be kicing pretty hard. But that fact that I got to see her move a little bit, everyday she gets a little more real to me.
Matt and I are still working on a name. We have some major differences on some names, but a few we agree on. We've dwindled it down to about 50 or so. Some of the ones that we have high marks for are: Elissa, Arianna, Daphne, Emma, Gwendolyn, Lacey, Laney, Arria, Keira, Lauralin, Sydney. Anyone have favorites? Let us know in a post to this blog, so everyone else can see!
