19 weeks 6 Days

I am a few days past my 1/2 way point!!

(I get a week off for C-section). And the last u/s measured me 2 days further than the last one.

Yes, I am counting these days in. It provides me with some relief that I am closer to the end.

And also, these days mean alot in the world of C-section deliveries I am told. My Dr. will not take the baby more than a week before full term, as long as there are no problems. So, an accurate due date is necessary.

Anyway, things of note.

- I cannot sleep a full night. I can make it through the night without having to get up to use the bathroom, but now it is back pain. I am a stomach sleeper, and a back sleeper. I can't do either of these.
- I am not as irritable as I have been, but Mike still gets the brunt of my annoyances. Not sure if he is irritating, or if it is me. Probably alot of both.
- I think I feel the baby move. But still am not sure.
- I am for sure bigger, and showing.
- I can almost not pick up B without feeling it in my belly. And by the way, why does he like to walk on my stomach? Ouch!
- I think my appetite has returned, and do not feel morning sickness at all...knock on wood.
- I still have to have cake in the house or I freak out. I think I am comforted just by knowing I have it.
- I have a boys name if it is a boy. Mike doesn't agree fully yet, but we dont fight about it like we do other names.

Anyway, today the men are installing windows and doors, and preparing for the stucco guy to come and begin work on Tuesday. This means that it will be enclosed, meaning we can have Rich come back and finish the ductwork so we can get air running through there.
