Today i'm 20 weeks and 6 days pregnant. Piki is the size of a banana and is working on tastes buds and now drinks the amniotic fluid.
This has been quite an interesting week. On Wednesday D wasn't feeling so good so I took her to the doctor. I'm pretty sure she was misdiagnosed but she's doing better now. Because she wasn't feeling well I was holding her throughout a lot of the day, most of it standing because she'd cry if I sat down. I think that and being out and not drinking water/eating caused my body to be wore out and dehydrated because later on that evening I had some bad braxton hicks and some back pain and went up to L&D. I was up there a total of 4 hours and got an IV with fluids, but started feeling better. Baby Piki was perfect and if anything got annoyed that monitors were invading his space. He would constantly kick them trying to move them out of the way. Other things that happened this week was getting to go to a family members birthday party and having Christmas pictures done of us and the girls. I can't wait to see how they turn out!!
I had a doctors appointment today. I'm not very happy with my weight gain, but everything looked great and we picked up the heart beat right away. I guess the nurses up in L&D were quite excited about someone working with a male couple because my doctor told me he heard about it last week. I think i'm probably going to be one of the first doing that which is cool. Thankfully I now have my 20 week ultrasound now scheduled for the 3rd even though i'll be almost 23 weeks then.
I also figured i'd share a picture from last week that I had forgotten to add. Such a cute profile!
