how fast?

I hit the 20 week mark on Thursday, and I'm just wondering how fast everyone's pregnancies went after they hit that big milestone? I'm so ready to meet my baby, but I definitely need to time to get everything prepared for him!

I think if you forget all together about counting down the days weeks and months it goes by fast. Someone asked me the other day how far along are you. I was like umm i think 18wks lol. Then I had to hurry and look at this app and i am 23wks 5d lol. So to me things are moving fast I am almost double digits.

i think it goes faster this is my 3rd baby and i am 20 weeks even with my first 2 the first 1/2 always went so slow for me just for the fact most doctors dont see you till 10-12 weeks so you have to wait all that time and than to top it off you usually dont get a ultrasound till your anatomy scan unless they have to do a dating one.  so you go pretty much 20 weeks to wait for all that and the first 12 weeks always drag on for me just for the fact of m/c and always so worried :( but it always seem after my scan the anotomy one things always flew by since we always find out what we are having its tiem to shop and get ready for everythign and at that point after your scan you will know if everything looks good :) good luck

that is a really cute idea. im only 22+2 but it seams like the whole pregnancy has gone so so fast,  my best friend had her baby girl icelynn yesterday and I CANT WAIT TO HAVE MINE!! my daughter was so good about holding Icelynn and I cant wait to see her hold her baby brother. and don't feel bad about not having stuff ready, this is my 2nd child n I still have like nothing ready!!! he has 2 pasifiers, a bassinet, and 4 outfits. ugh!!

We bought a wooden box from Michaels and I kept everything we really wanted to save from his 1st year of life. We also saved all of his 1st years clothing and cut squares out of them and made a blanket. Time consuming, but fun!

Omg I feel like time has gone SOooo slow once I hit 20 weeks it went by fast up until then and I am 23 weeks tomorrow lol ! Maybe its cuz I have had like a lot of days off in a row hopefully working 6 days straiht will make time go by faster !!! When I hit 26 weeks and start havingmy Dr appts every 2 weeks instead of 4 maybe it will be more surreal so far I haven't felt at all pregnant lol but I just hope time boosts up any day now

My whole pregnancy has really flew, but my first passed SO slowly. I've started doing things like crafts to pass my time. I bought letters for her room and painted them with stencils to match her bedding, and decorated her memory box (like I did with my son), stuff like that, it really helps!

I'm 23 weeks & it seems time has come to a stand still since hitting 20. You have to think we usually don't even find out we're pregnant for 4-5 weeks so the first 20 is only 15-16 weeks of waiting. I'm with you though on being ready to meet or little ones. April can't get here fast enough!

haha I'm not stressin the baby stuff so much. babies don't need much, just lots of love and a few of the necessities. We think we need SO much nowadays for babies, whenever most of it will just lie around going to waste.
