So I am officially halfway through my pregnancy! Woohoo!!!
A couple of weeks ago I felt the baby move for the first time. I wasn't sure the first couple of times because they were so light! But after a week I knew. My description of what they feel like is tiny little taps from the inside. At least that's how they felt at first. Now the little one's movement's are much stronger and more frequent. I don't really know how to describe them now other than really stinking amazing! Feeling the baby move inside of me is my favorite experience thus far in pregnancy! Because it makes it all so real now! Haha the baby is twirling around as I type this. Its like its saying, "Hey mom, just so you know...here I am, growing in your belly!" I love it. I really want Chris to be able to feel it but the right moment hasn't happened yet. And as of Friday I realized you can see it move if you look at my belly when in kicks! So cool, I wasn't expecting that for a couple more months! I have tried recording it but my camera doesn't capture as good of video as it does pictures and you can't quite see the movements. Oh well, it will happen.
My bump has finally popped out. I mean I am not huge yet by any means, in fact I am still in that stage where people think I am pregnant but I am not big enough for anyone to say anything just in case! But its growing every day! Oh and my belly button won't be around for much longer, which is also really cool to me!
I can't believe that I am halfway through! On one hand it makes me really excited because I have waited so long for this milestone and if I can make it to 20 I can make it to 40. But now that I am here 20 more weeks seems like such a long tome to be able to see my baby! But the good thing is that from now on the baby and my belly will only get bigger. There isn't much to show during the first 20 weeks, even though you don't feel very great! But now the baby will just get bigger and stronger and will keep on growing until I get to hold him or her in my arms!!! EEEKKK!!! I am so excited!
Btw, the baby is the size of a banana now! Woohoo go baby! So that's all for now!
