16,17,18,19,20

Week 16- I still haven't felt any movement from the baby...hopefully I will soon. Im looking forward to it so this all might feel a little more real. Some pants and skirts don't fit comfortably anymore and I've bought some maternity jeans that I love..and they are cute. I've been lucky and also gotten to borrow some maternity clothes from a friend which is nice. I'm counting down the days until my next appt on Nov 26



18-This was the first time I really felt the baby move this week. Its still not consistent but I've felt it move twice now. Some days I don't feel pregnant at all and my stomach is super flat...other days I have a little bump.


20-I feel the baby move pretty regularly now, not every day but enough so I quit worrying, and Kelly even felt it kick. We had our 20 week ultrasound and it was amazing.My due date got moved up 4 days to April 14, not a huge change. It was so fun to get to see something that resembled a baby and kelly was interested in all the medical terms and  new developments. Last time we saw a picture it didn't look like much but this time it was so cool to see it moving around,kicking and turning like crazy. Since we are keeping the gender a surprise the ultrasound tech asked if we wanted the gender on our video and pictures. We both agreed it would be nice to have for the future baby books and stuff but the only downfall is we cant watch the video or look at any pictures since they have the gender on them. Bummer! But I don't regret it at all...I love knowing we are going to have an awesome surprise in 4 months. Its kind of funny how much our decision to not find out affects other people...some people get pretty opinionated about it  but I wouldn't have it any other way. When else in life do you get a surprise like this?
Oh  and Kelly felt him kick this week too

From now on ive decided to refer to the baby as He, better than calling the baby it. Kelly hopes for a boy so for now thats what we will pretend it is.
