20 weeks, +2 lbs, and gaining inches!

Apparently I've finally gained some weight at my last doctor's appointment. Two whole pounds! :) So that makes the grand total of what I've lost go from -29 lbs to -27 lbs. Or, as Sean says, "Only 27 lbs to go" (or gain). Dr. Navi was happy. I think he'll be even happier when I go see him next month and we'll have health insurance again. :) Hurray! (That's a lot of stress off my mind!)
I finished that dress I was telling you about in my last blog. I promise I'll put a picture of it up as soon as I can. It turned out really cute, but it was kind of a booger to make. I didn't realize that making tiny things would be a little bit harder (at least, to start with) than making bigger things. It's was like 14 stitches and I'm done with one side. Kind of weird, but I'll get used to it.
So far, I've only thrown up once this week (Tuesday). But, the fact that I'm still doing it means that I'm probably going to keep doing it for the entire pregnancy. My doctor says that, if by week 21, I'm not done throwing up, then I won't be stopping until the baby's born. :( Oh bummer. But, that's okay. At least it's only about once a week now.
Sean and I still are arguing about names. I never know when to take him seriously. The other night, he asked me how I liked the name "Citrus"... I really didn't know how to respond to that. So I asked him, "Are you serious???" He didn't answer, so I ignored that one. I think we're going to need to get a book and individually pick out names we like and then look at our lists together. I really don't know what else to do.
I've been looking into getting a maternity bathing suit. I never realized how expensive they can be (I found one I liked, but it was $118)! But, I found a cute one piece at Motherhood for only $30, so I might get that. I'm not stretching my current one out too much just yet (I'm not that big)-but I'm gaining inches in the middle, so I'll need one sooner than later.
