I cannot believe I am finished with my sencond trimester!!! It feels like it is taking forever, but really it is flying by. This baby is still moving like crazy, it literally kicks all day long. Tenlee has got to feel it move a lot and got to see it move from the outside at 20.5 weeks. She now likes to lift my shirt up and see if it is moving, and then she lifts her shirt up and tells me her baby is moving too! She has also started kissing my belly and telling the baby she loves it. MELTS my heart!!!
I still feel pretty good, just tired and hungry ALL THE TIME! I am measuring right on and so far I have gained just a few more pounds at this point than I did with Tenlee. I have gained 20.4 pounds so far with this baby and at this same point with Tenlee I had gained 16.2 pounds. I am still carrying this one just like I did with Tenlee, right out in front and very low, although I am a little bigger with this baby so far.

I have still been having heartburn, and I have also been having braxton hicks for quite a while. I thought it was the baby turning but I figured out that was not the case. I have been having them since 16 weeks, but the past couple weeks they come several times through out the day. I had them with Tenlee but not till the last month.
We finally decided on names! Our boys name has been set in stone before I got pregnant. But several of our girl names got picked by relatives so we had to switch them around. We are super excited about both names.

Tenlee covered my baby and "her baby" up with napkins at the fair. She told me they were both very cold. She has also brushed the baby's hair by brushing my belly with a hair brush and cut its finger nails with her nail trimmer. She is already very concerned and protective of the baby.
Had a little date night:)
Oh my gosh, it is so stinkin cute how she's already taking care of the baby! She's going to be an AWESOME big sister! :)
ReplyDeleteShe thinks that the boy is in her belly and the girl is in my belly. She knows the name choices so it is funny to here her refer to the "babies" with their names:)
DeleteLove the napkin "blanket" :) It's so fun to watch our first borns become big sisters!!
ReplyDeleteThe "blanket" made me laugh! She loves going to the dr with me to hear the heartbeat too. And yes it is so much fun watching her!
