Into the 2nd Half
I'm now more than halfway through the pregnancy, but it doesn't seem like much of an accomplishment. The first 5 weeks I didn't know, then it was a secret for so long, and for most of the first trimester I didn't even feel pregnant. There would be times I would even forget for a split second. Other than not having a period for awhile, the were no feelings of being pregnant.
20 Week Ultrasound
Last week was our big 20 week ultrasound! Again we did not find out the gender, but it's still a fun appointment to see Minion for so long. We made it a family event and bright the kids along, which I think was really great for Eden especially. After the appointment she was so mesmerized by the sonogram and kept saying "hi, baby". It was good for Addison too to get her excited. Of course she totally gets it, but I think since we didn't talk about it with others for so long and I wasn't showing until recent weeks, she wasn't that invested. Now she talks to and about Minion all the time.
The ultrasound was good. Minion is measuring average, with a heart rate around 140. We couldn't see the face until the very end, since Minion was being difficult with head down and faced away. But we got a couple good pictures at the end. So far the consensus is Minion looks like Eden (me) with Tim's head.
No info either way on girl or boy. Tim and I are both guessing girl, I think because it just seems like why wouldn't we have another girl?
4 long months to go till we find out!!
