The Adventures of the Beer Belly !



It's finally here!!!!!! To all those people who are asking here I am at 26 weeks. Many people tell me that I'm a little small but whatever I'm happy. But just think I'll get bigger and bigger yeah! heh I say that now right. Well in other events the baby is kicking now off and on. It felt weird at first and now that I think back was probably kicking for a little while but I couldn't really tell. It felt like a big gas bubble but it wasn't gas. Sorry that's the best way I can explain it. The first major kick was recognized on a most auspicious day, my dad's birthday. What a gift eh? I thought so =) I had been trying to get Chris to feel it and that finally happened Aug 11th when we went to visit his mom in NC. When I put his hand on my belly and the baby kicked I had asked him "you feel that?" he was like "that was your stomach". I chuckled and said no that was the baby, he was surprised and said "interesting". The next step I'm trying to take with him is actually seeing the baby move. Though he does have an uncanny knack of being able to tell where the baby's head is by feeling, where I (as of right now) normally have to wait until she kicks to get it right. The baby mainly moves and kicks when I've been sitting or laying down for a little while and when I eat. Gonna be a food lover that one. I've been staying busy at work so he also kicks at the wrong times right on my bladder! ugh that sooo doesn't feel good. I've been practicing all the supposedly good ways to sleep, lift, etc since I first learn I was pregnant so it would go smoothly when I actually needed to do it. Nope still not smooth heh but I tried right. The girls at work joke that I'm already doing the pregnancy walk.
