Half way there!

Woo hoo!! I am half way there today and at 20 weeks, baby is the size of a banana - about 6.5 inches from head to bottom or 10 inches from head to heel. Of course we'll get a more accurate picture next week at the ultrasound. I can hardly wait knowing baby is growing about an inch a week from now on and considering the last time I got a peek, s/he was only about 3 inches. I am still not feeling baby on a regular basis though every now and again I think I can feel movement. My doc said that's normal and really won't be feeling regular movement for a couple more weeks. I guess at 26 weeks they have you do something called kick counting to keep tabs on baby. My belly is getting bigger - will post more pics after the weekend - and less things are fitting. Went to put on some pants this morning but no way were they going to button up. Maybe I'll need to utilize my gift card soon :)
By the way, baby's life jacket arrived the other day and it has got to be the cutest thing ever - it's tiny!! I can't wait to see baby in it.
Happy long weekend to everyone!

That's so crazy your half way there! You should be able to find out the sex on your ultrasound next week, right? Are you wanting to know before?
