Well. It's kinda hard to tell when I'm looking DOWN at my belly, so I didn't think I was sticking out much. Then the other day we were waiting to cross the road, and I noticed my shadow. And yep, there's a definite bump there. No pictures, because the camera batteries are nearly dead. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. 
Oh, and the baby's latest hobby? Dancing on my bladder. Not quite as uncomfortable as having a cat stand on it, but only because he/she is only 1/6 the size of Calico, and 1/12 the size of Biscuit. And the kicking is strong enough now that Darrin can feel it too, which he's pretty happy about.
We're just past 21 weeks now, or almost 5 months. 20 weeks is considered halfway, but given that first babies tend to come late, I figure 21 weeks is closer to half. And the 3 kilograms I lost in the first few weeks have all come back, and each one has brought a friend along. So I guess my net weight gain so far is only 3 kilograms, and I'm far from finished, I'm sure.
So in a nutshell, everything's going well, nothing unusual happening. I've finally found some maternity clothes I can put up with, which is really good since even with the Belly Belt, my normal jeans feel a bit too tight in places.
