Half journey

20 weeks 2 days
weight ~ 60.7kg

**pop champagne first**

mummy & Baby made it to our 1/2 mark yesterday, we are 20 weeks!

mummy noted some progress of Baby. played music for Baby everyday with the constant reminder from daddy every night (note: that's what he had done for Baby so far) and apparently Baby has a mind of his own responding better with certain tunes that he prefer of course based on mummy's assumption. kicked much harder and frequently with certain tunes which mummy noted, can used it to soothe Baby when he's born.

Another cute observation, whenever a hand be it mummy's or daddy's placed on the tummy the kicking stop almost immediately and stayed very still for the next minute or two untill the hand is removed. As you have guessed it, daddy have not been able to feel Baby's kicks and punches as yet.

Mummy is eating much more than her pre pregnancy portion especially on the rice portion. Hunger sets in every 3 hours or so and bread is for sure the staple food nowadays perhaps overtook rice for that matter.
changes in mummy ~ as compared to 1st trimester, skin is not as oily and acne occurance reduces on the face as well as back. Insomina starts to kick in occassionally and definitely bump continue to grow. Fatigue largely reduce and are more mobile and active, able to shop for longer period of time. Not as prone to sickness as well **touchwood**

We have yet to plan for Baby's room should there be one? Received quite a lot of handowns from Aunty Jamie which should suffice on the clothing aspect so no more shopping for Baby's clothing untill he is 6 months old. Shortlisted a few names but indecisive due to the naughty daddy who make fun of every single names shortlisted.
