Hellobee

How many weeks along are you? 20

Due date? September 27

How much weight have you gained? 15 pounds

Symptoms? fatigue; general achiness (For the most part, food aversions and nausea are staying away.)

How is baby looking? Baby is the size of a banana! Baby is breech and doing a little dance on my bladder, so I practically have to pee every five minutes. We had a full anatomy scan, and everything is looking/measuring as expected. We also found out that baby is a…

…BOY!

How is Mr. Cotton Candy adjusting? Still doing well, though his recent promotion at work has him a little tireder and more stressed. We’re both hoping he has time to adjust before the baby gets here in September. Luckily, he should be able to take off a few weeks of parental leave.

How much planning have you done? Really haven’t done much baby planning since my last update two weeks ago. I’ve updated our teeny registry based on some more hand-me-downs we will get, but still haven’t bought anything.

What does the nursery look like? Still no nursery. Our house has not sold yet, so we are waiting to put an offer on a new home.

What are you missing the most? Still sugar.

What’s the most exciting thing about this stage? Finding out baby is a boy was so exciting! We didn’t find out with Little Cotton Candy until he was born, so it was fun doing it differently this time.

And just for fun, here is a comparison photo between my pregnancy with Little Cotton Candy and this pregnancy, at 19 weeks. So I guess the unsolicited comments I am getting about my size relative to my week of pregnancy are not completely unjustified.
