So, sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been lazy. Anyway, in 2 days I'll be halfway there! 20 weeks down, 20 to go!. I have it in my head that the second half will go a lot quicker, so I am really looking forward to this milestone.
Lately things have been pretty hectic this way. Tom and I are getting stuff ready to go back to the states and I have vacuum packed all my summery and pre-preggo clothes already. I officially have 1 month to go before I am out of England!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you tell I'm excited? Well, I will miss Tom so that'll be hard, but I'm getting the blues with the weather being so cold and grey day after day, so the sun wil be a welcome change.
I have been very accident prone lately, which is a bit disconcerting. Two weeks ago I pulled a pelvic ligament trying to work out and was on bedrest for a few days and this past week I fell outside the house and banged up my knee and couldn't walk properly for two days. I am a mess! Luckily everything was okay with our precious Lyla Rose.
Speaking of our little bean, she's been a very active baby lately. Now that my uterus is bigger she is kicking all over the place. I have been feeling several kicks by my belly button this week which is pretty weird and cool. I love to feel her in there, ...it lets me know she's a happy girl. So I did an 18 and 19 week preggy pic. Here they are:
I feel absolutely massive! I have decided to scale back on the junk food and opt for healthier choices going forward so I feel a bit better about myself. And so far I feel great. The urges to eat junk are still there, but getting better.
Well, that's all for now. I will try to post in week 20 with pics. Our next appointment at the docs is Feb.16th for the anomaly/anatomy scan where they check our little one and make sure everything's functioning as it should. I am looking forward to seeing her again and will post pics when I do!
