20 week update

i'm in my 20th week now which is exactly halfway through the pregnancy. 4.5 months to go! my stomach is getting bigger and i can feel the baby move now!! i don't feel it all the time, usually when i'm laying still. the first time i was reading and had my hand on my stomach and felt something move and i got so freaked out!! it just feels like something in your stomach is rolling, it's kind of a weird sensation. last night j talked to my tummy and the baby moved so he felt the baby also, yay.

the pregnancy is going well, no complaints. still getting used to the growing stomach, it's so strange seeing it so out there. and it's only going to get bigger, oy. i don't really have any cravings either, just been eating normally. i do like jamba juice a lot though, but i think it's mainly because my mouth is parched a lot and sweet icy liquid is very tasty. i have really horrible back acne, it's really gross. some on my chest too, but not as bad. i guess it's good that i'm not breaking out on my face, but back acne is reallly hard to get rid off. eww. i still find myself sleeping mostly on my back, but i think as my stomach gets bigger it won't be very comfortable. the problem with sleeping on my side is my shoulder, it gets in the way or my arm falls asleep.

I think there are special pregnancy pillows for side sleeping, but I'm not sure if they solve the arm-pinned-down problem. YAY for movement & growth!
