20-21 Weeks Pregnancy Update & Few Lovely Things

 

Hitting the halfway mark is exciting! I feel like I grew significantly in the last couple weeks. This Wednesday I have my monthly checkup, will be interesting to see how much I have gained in weight and inches. I have noticed my bump is much rounder than before and it is definitely quite high up.  One thing that is a huge change is my cup size.  They feel heavy and my back has been killing me.  I have been religiously stretching whenever I get aches or pains and it improves right away.  Thank goodness my hubs knows all the moves, he refreshed my memory. (He was a weightlifter and football player in HS).

 

My cravings have been pretty consistent. Loving my salsa and chips & perogies lately. As well as raspberries and watermelon!  I do crave sweets but I try not too go crazy because I notice myself getting extremely tired after couple hours if I indulge.  I had border line gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with Masha.  Just 10 points off but my midwife wanted me to follow a strict diet and check my blood sugar level just in case.  I'm not looking forward to that test this time around.  I absolutely hate that sugary drink, I'm not a soda drinker and I really hope I can get it down :/  If you have any tips on how to pass, please share!

 

Here are a few photos:

My hair has been growing like a weed! I have naturally very thick hair and now it's even thicker.  Definitely loving it, hoping to add some color later on.  Maybe ombre or balayage?!

Here is a better shot of my baby bump.  I think clothing make it look larger than it is because of my chest.  Love Victoria Secret Swim Suits since they go up to DD cups.
