I'm a wee bit behind on blogging, thanks to a work conference and an eventful weekend (dinner with the girls on Friday, an AC problem/roof leak on Saturday, dinner with friends on Saturday, and lots of errands on Sunday). I'll post my regular weekly update soon, but in the meantime, the little guy is being rather active.
I think I grew again over night, as is evidenced by my breathing issues today (and the scale... oy). And this baby is getting strong. He's been moving and kicking on my left side all day. Several times I have put my hand on the spot and felt an actual body part move back and forth across my hand. I think it's the heel of his foot or maybe a knee. I put a little bit of pressure on the spot, and he pushes right back. It's the coolest thing ever.
Before this, I've only really felt quick movements and fleeting kicks and punches. But this is like, "Oh, wow, there's a baby in there, and he's sticking his little foot into my hand." It's enough to make me tear up, and I'm not even sure I can blame the hormones for that.
And now he's doing the same thing on my right side. Ahhhh, I love him!
