I've been mostly posting in the August due date club but I thought i'd do an update here. OK, I'm just hitting 14 weeks and things are really starting to change
fast.
The big thing is I felt my baby move this week!
I didn't feel Reesi til about 16 weeks but everyone said you feel it sooner after your first and i guess they were sure right.
Most the time people say it's like bubbles and it sort of was like that, but to me it felt more like jello sort of jiggling inside me. I was at work taking a break so I was just sitting there when I felt it. With Reesi I wasn't sure what it was or if I even really felt it, but this time I
knew and it was
so awesome!!
That was like Tuesday and since then my little one's been jello-jiggling more and more and I totally love it!
I'm also definitely "out there" now, so instead of asking me if I'm pregnant people just ask me when I'm due. With Reesi I went along just looking like a chubbo and then suddenly it was like my tummy popped out and turned into a belly almost overnight. This time it's just been growing steadily and I had to start wearing maternity pants a few weeks ago til the other day when i looked in the mnirror after my bath I was like "Dang, gurl, you really
do look
pregnant!"
I've got this little cannonball belly and there's no way for anyone to mistake it for me just being fat any more.
My fiance Benji came home from college last weekend for like a late Valentines day weekend and I was really nervous how he'd react when he saw me cuz it had been like a month, So before he got here I must've changed clothes a zillion times and tried on everything I could fit it plus some things I couldn't squeeze into if my life depended on it but I finally went back to the first thing I tried - maternity jeans and a sweater that's got pretty tight on me lately. Guess i figured to get it all over with at first glance.
Anyway, when he got here and i opened the door he gave me a
big hug and kiss, and i thought "This is gonna be OK after all." But then he stepped back, looked down at my tummy and said "Soemthing's come between us" and I almost broke right out crying til he added "and i love it."
So we had a great weekend together, if you know what i mean.
I was supposed to have another dr appointment Monday but they moved it back a week cuz I'm getting an ultrasound Friday and they thought they should wait for that. I think it'll still be too early to find out the sex since I'll be 14 almost 15 weeks then, but we'll see. I'm a little nervous about my weight cuz all i do is eat eat eat and I feel like I'm really packing on the pounds. So far i've gone from 112 to 124 pounds
but then it's all going to my tummy and the baby except for what's gone to my boobs (the only place i'm not tiny when i'm not preggo
), so I don't guess it's bad. One thing i learned with Reesi is when you short like me trhere's nowhere for any extra pounds to go but out, and sure is where mine's gone.
I was miserable most the time I was preg with Reesi, mainly I think cuz I was 15 and scared and didn't know what to expect and cuz I was trying to get thru my junior year being a mommy-to-be. It's
sooo hard to believe she's going to be
2 years old in about a month!!!
But you know how they say every pregnancy's different? Well this one's sure different for me, and one of the biggest differences is I'm lovin' it.
Anyway, that's an update on me. sorry it turned out so long. How's everyone else doing?
it must be great to feel your little one moving around inside of you..i do have a question though..for the past 2 weeks i been feeling what i could call it twitches..like at the lower and middle part of my stomach and since this is my first im not really sure if its the baby..ill be finding out how far i am this week..do you think it could be the baby? hope you keep us updated on your little one!!!
