And...today marks 20 weeks! Halfway there.



Did any of you ladies ever travel while pregnant? Tomorrow I leave and will be driving about 20 hours in two days. Any suggestions to make the trip easier? I'll be doing this once a month until 32 weeks. Doc doesn't allow travel of more than 1.5 hours away at that point.

I think that you're suppose to get out and walk around every so often when you travel. That's a LOT of traveling!!!!

It's hard to believe that you're at 20 weeks!!! Little Aiden will be here before you know it!!!

Thanks for the tip Diana. The doc said the same thing today!

Here are some pics from Bren took today of the 20 week bump...even though it's still not very big yet!

Oh how cute

I'm not sure about traveling but if you want to push that baby out with no problems you do need to walk alot and do some light exercise. Some stretching and squats are great. How excited you must be

JJJ, I've definitely been trying to walk as much as possible!

We registered today and it was a blast! It's just so hard because neither me or hubby is very picky and we didn't want to limit friends and family in what they could buy. I'd rather they just pick stuff than me tell them what to get. We are just so lucky to have loved ones who want to help out!

Hubby is out with a friend at the wood shop (I think that's what it's called) on campus making little cutouts of Aiden's name to hang on the wall. We chose the font last night and I think it's super cute (attached photo). Since there are five letters, we're each taking one and we're giving one to my mom, brother, and sister to paint and decorate. Add a little personal touch to the room.

Oh, and the trip went well. I was super tired by the end, but little Aiden and I both managed just fine.

I'll post photos as soon as possible. Feel free to add me on FB to see lots more photos as well as videos.
