20 Week Baby Bump

Number of weeks: 20 weeks
Measurement: 20 weeks and 3 days
Baby Size: According to the Bump, our baby is the size of a banana and weighs approximately 10.6 ounces and is 6.5 inches long. However, our little lady weighed in at 13 ounces and a bit longer than the Bump's 6.5 inches. I'll have to find the true length measurement shortly. Let's just say that we have been told our little girl has some long legs.
Interesting Fact: The baby has completely working taste buds and is taking in amniotic fluid, more than she used to.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +7.8
Pregnancy Clothes: Love them! I will be going on a small shopping spree before summer hits though. My belly is sure getting bigger and some of my regular tops are NOT cutting it. I don't even want to mention bathing suit season at this time. ha!
Tiger Stripes: It's just a matter of time as I know that I may definitely gain some this pregnancy.
Sleep: This week has actually been a bit uncomfortable. I get hot and can't find a good postition. I do go to the bathroom several times in the middle of the night which has made it more difficult to go back to sleep. I am just so excited and anxious about our little miss, about school's ending and the upcoming thoughts of summer school, as well as all the fun tasks that this summer will bring.
Movement: Our little lady is a mover and groover. I love feeling her little kicks, even though they are very close to my bladder. At our appointment we found out the little miss is currently breech and facing my spine with her feet well below. This gives her a perfect position to play the piano on my lower tummy. I just can't wait for Ray to feel her. I know that is something that he has been so excited about and know it is sure to come soon.
Most Memorable Moment: This week we saw our baby girl, heard the wonderful news that she is healthy and right on track. Again this is music to a mama's ears.
Cravings: I still can't say that I've had true pregnancy cravings. I pretty much always want sweet desserts or queso. This pregnancy I have loved sharp cheddar cheese, queso and chips, pie with vanilla ice cream on top, icees, and a strong desire for cupcakes. YUM!
Gender Predictions: We are welcoming our sweet daughter, Aubrey Rose Zellner in early October. I just love her name as it is a perfect combination of family history. Aubrey is Raymond's grandfather's name while Rose is my middle name and my Oma's (grandmother's) middle name. It truly is perfect!
What I Miss: I miss cookie dough, cupcake mix, brownie mix, and deli meat.
What I look forward to: I look forward to all the fun tasks that will be accomplished this summer from registering, fixing up the nursery, baby shopping, and classes that will help us prepare for her arrival. I am also so very excited that there are only 9 more days of school. I am extremely excited about summer and all it will bring. :)

  1. I wouldn't stress about her being breech. She has PLENTY of time to do lots of somersaults until she gets the right way!
