Half Way There!

Yesterday marked that wonderful halfway point of my pregnancy - 20 weeks! It's crazy to think how fast it is all going, and my belly has definitely started growing. I've had lots of problems with morning sickness, and unfortunately seem to be catching a lot more viruses and colds than usual. Bubba has also started to kick, and it's been fantastic to share some of these with Stuart, he even got to feel Bubba turning over the other day.

We have had our morph scan done - where they measure everything on Bubba to check that they are okay - and I am very proud to say that we stayed strong and did not find out the sex. So we still have a little surprise on our hands!! The next couple of photos were taken during the morph scan, at 19 weeks and 3 days.

Hello Bubba!! We've had soooo much fun guessing who Bubba will look like, and comparing this image to our own baby photos of ourselves!!

I thought some comparison photos were in order too. The photos on the left are my photos from when I finished the 12WBT program on 22nd August (as seen here), and the photos on the right were taken Sunday - one day before my official 20 week mark. The extra special thing about these photos?? The photos on the left from 12WBT were taken around conception, so highly likely your looking at a 2 day belly there!!! Ha ha.

I am very happy with my weight during my pregnancy, I have stayed consistent and am currently sitting on 80kgs. However, I'm sure I will put on quite a few more kilos as Bubba continues to grow and my belly button pops out.

Hopefully I will be able to post more as I'm not suffering from the nausea anywhere near how much I have been.

Again, sorry for the bad grammar and spelling, and the poorly structured sentencing!!

Love to all, and of course a huge HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
