20 Weeks


Today I am 20 weeks pregnant. We went and saw Dr. Morales on Wednesday afternoon and we had another ultrasound. The baby looked awesome and I was able to see the distinct chambers of the baby's heart. In the waiting room Jeremy and I decided we were going to find out the sex of the baby just because of the excitement of it all but Dr. Morales got called away on a delivery and I had to come back without Jeremy in the afternoon. When I got into the room Dr. Morales asked me if I wanted to know the sex of the baby and I was really unsure so he said he would look and see if it was even possible to determine it based on how the baby was positioned. While he was looking, he told me how exciting it is to wait until the baby is born to see if the baby is a boy or a girl and he reminded me of why we were going to wait in the first place. Dr. Morales was able to see the sex of the baby but before he told me he asked what my decision was. I decided to wait (again) and therefore we still don't know the sex. I just keep thinking about how exciting it will be to find out for the first time in the delivery room.
I have been feeling great and I haven't been too tired. So far I have gained around 7-9 pounds which isn't too bad. ;) I can feel the baby kick whenever I am sitting or lying down. I can also see my belly moving when the baby moves which is so much fun!!
