6 Months and Still Growing

Let the fighting begin!

Yesterday while I was reading Henry some stories he got kicked. Luckily he didn't notice, or didn't react. This has been happening for some time now, it just hasn't been felt from the outside. I could actually see this one though.

When I'm changing Henry's clothes or diaper he constantly has to have a foot (or two) on my belly. I think he knows what he is doing and it is his way of showing dominance over the little one.

3 Months to go

Another month done. Time is starting to speed up...and run out. I know that it is still 3 months, but it doesn't seem that long.

Scott admitted to talking about me to the pregnant women that he works with. His comment as to if I complain:

Scott: "How about you tell me when you DON'T have heartburn or a sore tailbone?"

He of course hadn't told ME that he thought I was complaining a lot. Now I know, and haven't said a word since...well, I've tried not to say a word. But really, how would he share in the pregnancy if I didn't tell him about all of its joys?!

4 Months to go

Another doctor visit today. I was a little nervous about the weighing in, but after the flu this week that was no problem. In fact, she told me to eat more! Who doesn't want to hear that?! She knows I'm not aiming for a 11 or 12 pounder, but still wants to see more calories. I'll get right on that.

Everything else checked out great. Next month is my glucose test. I remember that not being too bad with Henry so I'm hoping it turns out the same way this time.

Baby on the Move

Last night before I headed to bed the Baby was on the move. Scott even felt the kicking for the first time. We were able to watch it moving around even. Apparently this is going to be an active child!

Feeling Pregnant

Today more than one person told me that I was finally looking pregnant. Well, today I feel pregnant! Everything feels tight and tonight the heartburn has been non-stop! Nothing is helping it go away, and nothing sounds good to try anymore. I guess I'll head to bed and hope it is gone in the morning!

Halfway Through

We have made it halfway, 20 weeks down, 20 to go! I can't believe this little fact. I still have moments where I don't feel pregnant at all. I have finally broken out some maternity clothes, but am thrilled to still be wearing my own jeans! This is inspite of the snacking and sweets that I have been consuming. Cereal has been the snack of choice and Root Beer is still a favorite all of the time!

Even Henry seems to be getting ready in his own little way. I have a cabbage patch doll that he loves to hug and carry around. He points out it's features (eyes, nose and ears) and then pats it's head and says "nice". Hopefully this will be the same in a few months.
