Ok i apologize if this sounds strange but am a ftm so give me a little slack, Haha! I just feel like the time is flying. Thinking of it being the half way point is just crazy to me!
Anyways, now that i am 20+2 what should i be expecting and be aware of??
I've had it pretty easy so far. And i know everyone is different.
I did have my appt yesterday but my doc was delivering a baby so didn't ask too many questions.
Thank you ladies!!

Im 21 weeks. You will probably feel movement and more cravings. I just cant wait for my husband to feel his son for the first time.

Thanks again! Im reading the What To Expect book but wanted to 'hear' it from this amazing support group. I've had it pretty good so far too... Baby is progressing very well, my blood pressure & weight is perfect, no sickness & i feel great.

Not really that I can think of. I guess health related would be that later on your feet and ankles can swell some and its good to put your feet up a couple times a day but if they swell a lot you would want to talk to your Dr. I had wonderful pregnancies so I didn't really have to deal with problems.

Thank you!
Anything i need to be more aware of... Health/concern wise?

Hmmmm... I suppose the only things that will change much is as you get bigger you'll be making more trips to the bathroom, it gets harder to get comfortable, and you can't eat as much because your stomach is squished by your uterus. My favorite change as you get farther along is how much you can feel the baby move and then when you can see the baby moving its so cool.
