Got to see my sweet little Rook at my 20 week anatomy scan. He was very energetic, he kept raising his little arms above his head and kicking his legs. It was hard to get good pictures, but I got a few cute ones! He's still a boy, not gonna lie, I was a little worried that my 17 week scan was wrong! I loved getting to see my baby boy today, I could have spent all day staring at his sweet face and cute little feet and hands. (:

Tip of the week:
Ahhh hormones. Hormones can really get the best of us during pregnancy, it's almost scary how fast we can go from happy, to crying in a huddled mess, to screaming at our SO over nothing. There's not really an easy way to handle them, other than to step back and breath. Try to remember that you're hormonal, it can make things much easier when you just acknowledge that you're being a little crazy! For example, I got into a huge fight with my husband over plans changing that he had absolutely NO control over. For whatever reason, my crazy hormonal brain needed to blame someone, and as my other half, my husband is usually the poor victim in these moments. I finally had to step back and realise how ridiculous I was being. Now we can laugh at it, but at the time, it was practically World War III. My advice, for the sake of your marriage/relationship, and for the sake of your precious baby, try to keep the crazy in check, and when that's just not possible, make sure you make it up to your SO like crazy later! You definitely need him on your side ;D
