20 Weeks 5 Days

Everything has been going great. I have started nesting, that's for sure. I have also been feeling a lot of movement since sometime in week 17- which is a lot earlier than with my daughter. I am wondering if the placenta attached to the back of my uterus because of this, and also how the movements feel. Jesse has felt kicks a few times, they always seem to stop when he tried to feel. Our daughter had felt them too. She laughs and thinks it's funny that the baby kicked her. She is being amazing, and always wants to touch my belly and asks daily to hold the baby. Hopefully this continues after baby is here!

We have our anatomy scan today. I am so nervous. I always expect the worst, so on days of my doctor's appointments I'm not in the best mood. We will be finding out the sex today too, which we didn't with our daughter. I'm incredibly anxious about that as well. I am just afraid with my anxiety and fear that I will have a horrible reaction and come off like I'm not excited- which I honestly don't care. But like any human (or woman), my emotions sometimes take over. I really have no feeling about what the baby is, and I didn't with our daughter either. I'm hoping for a healthy baby who has no anomalies and that the next 18/19 weeks goes quickly!
