21 weeks, 5 days. April 9th 2015

Currently I am 21 weeks, and 5 days pregnant! Baby is approximately as big as a (small) carrot around 10.5 inches and 12.7 ounces (.79 lb so still quite little). 
I am doing well, and everything is perfect with my pregnancy so far. 
I am feeling more comfortable now, less thick feeling and more pregnant, which I love. I am in love with my pregnancy and our baby girl already! 
I have no complaints about my pregnancy. Im a little bit more uncomfortable sleeping sometimes and the weird dreams that people talk about have been happening, more vivid and surreal. I have been tired in the evenings, still but less than before and Ive always gone to bed early so it's just exaggerated now. 
My appetite has died down and Im not longer ravenously hungry when I dont eat every 3 hours (phew). I still dont have any cravings; however, I enjoy cold things like ice cream, ice-water, freezies etc. 
I feel the baby occasionally, about 2-3 times per day. The movements I feel are subtle. Sometimes I think that I can feel the baby girl externally, but Daddy Dennis hasnt yet felt the baby. He still thinks it's weird, and a bit alien. 

Next week, April 16th we have a follow up appointment with our midwife, and at the end of the month, April 30th we have our follow-up ultrasound to see if my placenta has moved. Fingers crossed that it has, or that it will! I want to keep my midwife and hopefully still have a vaginal birth. 

Thanks for following along! 

For any of those who are interested, we have started a registry at: http://babyli.st/brandi-and-dennis
