Yes, I finally felt it! Sitting in church yesterday morning, I definitely felt for the first time a good kick of punch. It actually kind of caught me off-guard. I just hadn't really been thinking about it at the time. Of course, at this point, it is very sporadic, but I've definitely felt a few more kicks today. Everybody is right when they say you can't really describe it, but it was definitely wonderful! I'll have to remember that when JackHannah is kicking my ribs later in the pregnancy :-)
I've definitely developed a bit of a baby bump now, too. I'm starting to get a bit self-conscious about the belly pics, so I may start posting with the shirt OVER the tummy soon. I know that it's natural for the waist to expand, but it's still a little tough getting used to. Of course, being a typical woman, I've mentioned this to Jason a few times, hoping to get a reassuring response of "I haven't even noticed" or "You are more beautiful now than ever" or some other man-lie like that. Instead, he has reassured me not to worry b/c I'll lose it all after. NOT the response I was looking for. I finally advised him that when I make such comments, I'd like the proper daddy-to-be response :-) I don't need to be reminded that I'll need to lose weight afterward! He is doing much better now :-)
Our next ultrasound is scheduled for a week from today. We're still planning on not finding out the sex, but it will be fun to see how much the baby has grown since our last ultrasound. I'll post pics next week for sure!
Bedtime for me, but before I go I'll post what will most likely be my last bare belly shot (at least for public viewing...)
