Week 20!!! - Halfway cooked!!

We are halfway through this pregnancy!!! Hopefully Olivia will cooperate and come around 37-38 weeks instead of 40 or 41!! We will see if she will be a good listener or not. :)

Here is what should be happening this week....
Olivia is about 10.5 ounces and 10 inches long from head to heel (about the length of a banana). Olivia is swallowing more these days, helping our her digestive system. She is producing meconium. The top of my uterus is about at my belly button. I have only gained about 7-8 pounds so far...but it says to expect to gain about a pound a week until the delivery. I am going to try and eat more fruit so that doesn't happen :)

For the most part, the pregnancy is going better. I only throw up 1-2 times a week now. I have more energy...but still like to nap :) My back seems to hurt a little less. It is hard to get comfortable when trying to sleep...but once I fall asleep I am fine. I do have to go to the bathroom a lot throughout the day. I went 6 times today at school. That is crazy!!!

Jay and I have signed up for a birthing class. It is at the beginning of Dec. I have also signed up for prenatal yoga classes that start during my track out. I am very excited about that!! Track Out is going to be very busy this time. Trying to clean and move the office and bedroom into one room so that I can paint Olivia's room. We will see how much I get accomplished.

That is all for now!! More info to come later on :) Thanks for all your support throughout this crazy time of our lives!!!
