The little flutter...




Well,
I do believe that I felt the baby flutter for the first time the other night. It was about 3 a.m. and I was probably going to pee... again! I was lying there and it felt like a little bubble popping, or a fluttering feeling. It did it a couple of times and then stopped. I have felt that same feeling a couple of times since, and am hoping that is the baby. :) We will find out soon the gender, but it is hard to wait. On the health update, I have finally been able to get the medicine to work. I occasionally still do my usual evening sickness, but most of the time with the medicine, I just feel a little sick without getting sick. The other night I thought I would try and see if I was done needing the meds, so I didn't take them.... bad idea! So, back on and just trying to allow myself to understand that it's needed right now. With the changing of the seasons I am battling a chest cough right now, so that just gives me another reason to not sleep... but i am not complaining! lol. As far as how I feel during 80% of the day, I am good! This morning was a good morning and I got up, baked an apple pie, started some homemade crock pot applesauce, and cleaned a little. This was pretty productive if I say so myself! I am getting really anxious to start the planning and preparing. We have tried to not think of names much, but i secretly have some on my brain. :) I am 17 weeks now (technically in a day), and am really starting to feel/see the bump! My flat belly is stretching and there is a pretty hard bump in the middle! My pants refuse to button, so my baby band is coming in handy in order for me to still do without maternity pants. I finally took some pictures and got a couple of the recent ones to download. These are my 16 and 17 week pictures. It just so happens that I take my pictures on Hog Game Days! ;) Whoo pig sooie! I can't wait to see if I will be buying a lil' Razorback jersey or cheerleader outfit! We shall see soon....
