20 Weeks

So I've been really bad about documenting my pregnancy, BUT now that I'm starting to feel better I hope to do a better job :) I can't believe I am 5 months! I spent this first half of my pregnancy in a morning sickness fog and have only started to feel better the last few days. I'm hoping my next 20 weeks are morning sickness free! Here is my 20 week update:

How far along? 20w2d
Total weight gain: 3lbs+. Last month I thought I had gained more then I actually did. Only 1lb. I should be gaining about 4 a month but my doctor says all is well so I'll take the 1 pound!
Maternity clothes? Yep, mostly leggings and jeans. My regular tops all still fit.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I've been sleeping pretty well. My maternity pillow is very comfy :)
Best moment this week: Today I decided to visit TJ MAXX and Target to look at their baby stuff and boy did I score! You can see more about my shopping trip below.
Miss Anything?  Sushi!
Movement: I have been feeling Baby M kick since week 18. I usually feel her in the evening when I'm laying down watching TV. At our last appointment when my doctor was trying to listen to her heartbeat she kicked the doppler and he had to find her all over again. At home, when I listen to her heartbeat I can constantly hear her kick. It makes me smile just thinking about her being so active. She's definitely going to be a soccer player like her daddy!
Food cravings: Milk! Also  A.1. Sauce and sweets!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still grease and meat are not very appetizing. I'm finally starting to feel better so more things besides applesauce, yogurt and milk are starting to sound good.
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: I've experience some lower back pain recently but I do spend 8 hours on my feet each day so I guess it's expected.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Our ultrasound appointment on Monday!


This morning I thought I would take a stroll in TJ MAXX while Mauricio was golfing. I wasn't anticipating on finding anything but boy was I wrong! I really like Carter's clothing but haven't had the opportunity to buy anything. Everything I bought was Carter's that I have seen and wanted. I bought 3 onesies, 3 sleepers, a bib, a cap, and an adorable bath robe for Baby M. If I had bought all of this at regular price I would have spent $96 BUT I only spent $30! Now that's what I call a deal :)

My TJ MAXX Finds:

Since I scored at TJ MAXX I thought I would try my luck at Target and lucky me everything was on sale! At Target I bought 7 onesies, 2 leggings, and 2 headbands for $20 and normally would have cost me $36.

My Target Finds:

And lastly, the only thing I bought that was not on sale was an adorable peacoat for Baby M when she's older. I couldn't pass it up but it was still only $20.
