No big news this week except that were halfway through. I'm continuously getting larger which requires me to shop for more maternity dresses. Some people complain about the cost of maternity clothes but I found that the best place to shop is online at http://www.maternitymall.com and only order at Motherhood Maternity. The rest are, in fact, expensive. I also shop once every three months. My size is so unpredictable. who knows if the same dress that fit me now will still fit me next month. 
I've also gotten into sewing. It's very time-consuming and not always the cheaper alternative. Make sure you just sew when the fabric's on sale. Otherwise, you might as well buy it.

We're on our 20th week. I haven't vomited in almost two weeks. I'm still sensitive to smell but I don't get nauseous anymore. Overall, my morning sickness, I believe, is over. I still can't eat chicken or beef but I've been able to eat some fish. If only the grocery strike would be over so it'd be easier for me to buy some food. I'm going to try to cut down on the sweets since I'll be able to eat healthy now. 
I'm a bit crankier. Even though smells don't get me nauseous, I'm still extremely annoyed when I smell something. That's when the crankiness meter goes up.

The baby is now about 10 inches long and 10 ounces heavy. I feel it move and it moves quite a lot. Tam talks to my tummy all the time. I indulge him by answering for the baby. Oh the silly things we do to entertain ourselves!
