Half Way Update

I am going to ignore the fact I look horrible in this picture and focus on the fact that I am just over half way through this pregnancy, all down hill from here!  I really wish my nausea would go away, but that doesn't seem to be looking so good.  I still have lovely pregnancy acne, which I thought was gone by this point last time.  I look and feel HUGE, but at my Doctor's appointment last Monday he said my weight gain was right on.  I know part of it is you just look bigger faster once you have had one, but I still feel like a blob.  I haven't really popped yet either, so it just looks like extra chub, rather than a baby bump.  At my 20 week ultrasound she was only measuring 4 days bigger, which gives me a tiny sliver of hope that she won't be as big (or bigger) than Milo was.  At my 19 week ultra sound with Milo he measured 10 days bigger, so I should have know he would be a big baby.  My Mom had small babies, so a tiny part of me holds on to the hope that maybe she will be smaller.  Not likely though, so I am trying not to get my hope's up.  I am starting my reading on the Bradley Method, most people I know who have done natural child birth have used parts from Bradley, so I think I will check it out.  I am super excited about it!  Kevin is a really good coach.  I am trying to enjoy the ride this pregnancy and I feel like it is going by quick.
