20 down, 20 to go.

Today, I am officially 20 weeks pregnant.  I am HALFWAY to the end of being pregnant and the beginning of being even sleepier!  On the car ride to work today, I found myself reflecting on the pros and cons of pregnancy.  Here are a few I came up with...

WARNING: continue reading at your own risk.  This is a TRUTHFUL blog post about pregnancy.

Pros at 20 Weeks
Cons at 20 Weeks
At 20 weeks pregnant, you have what others consider a “cute” bump.
You feel fat.
Food tastes delicious and doesn’t make you queasy anymore.
Delicious food gives you forest fire strength heartburn.
You can walk around in the heat without wanting to be sick or pass out.
When you walk around, your ankles look like the Nutty Professor
Your hair looks the best it’s ever looked.
However, you know as soon as you have the baby, a lot of your hair will fall out.
You’re curvier in all the right places.
You have stretch marks in all the right places too.
You can still see your legs when you’re shaving them in the shower.
You pull a muscle in your back when you lean over to shave your legs.
Your skin is glowing.
Your skin has skin tags.
You can feel your baby kick.
Your baby likes to practice Kung Fu while you are sleeping.
You made it through 20 weeks of being pregnant, including the dreaded 1st trimester
Wait a second…I still have 20 weeks to go and haven’t even made it to the dreaded third trimester!

Good luck to all the other mommies and future mommies who are also halfway there!
