Halfway!

As of today, I am 21 weeks and 1 day pregnant, so I am past the halfway point! It's so weird to think that I'm this far along, since I'm still not as heavy as I usually am when I get pregnant, let alone when I'm halfway there. I haven't had a lot of morning sickness for the past two months or so, but I do have eating fatigue, where pretty much nothing sounds good to eat (except maybe candy, but then only eating candy on an empty stomach makes me feel worse!). But, my weight gain isn't low enough that the doctor is worried.

Today, we had our major ultrasound. And, to answer the first and obvious question, no, we still don't know if it's a boy or girl. We are going to be surprised! Everyone else is convinced that this one is a girl due all the differences in my pregnancy, but I used the same logic with A (my pregnancy with him was so different than with my other two!) and clearly that wasn't accurate. So, you'll all just have to wait until February like the rest of us to find out.

The ultrasound went well. The doctor said everything looks great, and I think the profile picture looks a lot like AJ. Interestingly though, this baby's head is only measuring at 20 weeks and a few days...in other words, SMALLER than normal. Odd, since my babies have ginormous heads! Maybe I'll have a nice, easy delivery this time. Ha!

The best part of the ultrasound? This!


The doctor caught the baby yawning! How cute is that?!?!?
