22 Weeks

I didn't post last week because I posted the pictures the previous day. I figured that was good enough.
A pretty uneventful week. I have resorted to using the motorized carts when shopping at Wal-mart and such. If I have more than just one stop to make I am unable to finish my errands after walking around for an extended period of time. My hips just give out and I look like a duck out of water...waddling. It's not very pretty, and quite painful. I had the same condition with Ben and ended up on bedrest, so I am trying to prevent that from happening this time.
I go to the doctor Thursday to get permission to travel over the holidays. I'll probably have my insulin increased at that time as my sugar levels have been wacky. I think the baby is going through a growth spurt because I've been very hungry the last 2 days.
I may not post next week as I am unsure as to what kind of internet connection I will have, but regardless I hope everyone has a happy and safe Christmas with the ones you love!

Half Way Mark!!!

Okay, here is my 20 week belly shot. Don't laugh.
It's hard to believe I've hit 20 weeks! Still only halfway there though! Now the fun begins! Zachary has been doing what Jeff terms Zach Attack! He is kicking and moving like crazy. Sometimes it even hurts! He weighs about 10 oz now and is about 10 inches long. I have our "big" ultrasound on December 11th.
No weight gain yet, but I'm sure that's to come. For now I'm maintaining, which is sometimes harder than it sounds! No crazy cravings. The tomato craving is finally over, as is the squash craving. Hopefully my next craving will be as healthy as the first two!
Here's to another 20 ( hopefully 19) uneventful weeks!
