Mommy is doing pretty well these days... just growing a lot, (as you can tell from the pictures). Micah and I just returned from a lovely week long trip to Amelia Island, FL with his family for a wedding. We had a great time and I felt pretty good most of the trip. I had a couple of rough times getting dizzy and nauseous, but I did great for most of the trip. I had a pretty emotional day as well one day on vacation. I got waaaay overly sensitive and could not stop crying. You know if I cry over a dropped pickle, then it doesn't take much. I didn't get much sleep on the trip. I have to pee a lot during the night and it becomes pretty annoying. I'm sure it's not going to get any better either, especially since I will be up with an infant in about 5 months all during the night. The most exciting update this week is that I believe I am starting to feel the little tuna moving, (hence the title of the blog today.) After talking to a couple of other pregnant ladies, I've told them the feelings I have been having in my lower belly and they have said that it is probably the baby moving. It feels like a little butterfly is just fluttering around in there and I love it. Sometimes, I can feel it a little more strongly than others. It also seems to happen early in the morning and early evening or if I am sitting or laying for a long time. I can't wait until Micah can feel it moving, but that will probably be a couple weeks longer. I'll update again in about a week or so. Until then, see ya next time!
Feeling the baby move for the first few times is AMAZING! When you are able to feel it on the outside of your belly, it becomes even more real, especially for the dad! Thank you for sharing your pregnancy with us - it's so much fun to read!
ReplyDeleteCute pictures from your beach trip Rachel. I like what you are calling your baby, too! We had a "peanut" (Harrison) and an "alien" (Halle). Take care!
