Baby Boy's heartbeat was nice and strong yesterday during my appointment. Dr. Bass had a hard time getting the heartbeat on doppler because our little guy was moving around so much, but eventually he cooperated with us.
Overall I've been feeling good. I'm still battling some muscle pain in my rear end and legs--Dr. Bass thinks it's a form of deep sciatica and suggested I speak to a physical therapist to see if there are any exercises or stretches that can help. He also gave me a script for some sexy compression stockings (God, pregnant women are HOTTTT right?!!) to pick up which should help.
I'm up 9 lbs total so far, which puts me a little behind on the "recommended weight gain" chart, actually. I feel huge, but others keep telling me I look tiny---at least my face hasn't puffed up....yet. Here's a 20 week comparision of how I looked during Emma's pregnancy, and then this one.

We haven't chosen a name yet, but we do have a few in mind. Right now we're keeping them to ourselves and trying them out--saying them out loud and seeing how they feel. Naming a baby is no easy feat--- I mean, Emma was going to be Camden until about 6 weeks before her birth! Now, I can't imagine her as anything but an Emma. We'll keep you posted once we decide :)
