28 Weeks!

We are officially in our Third trimester! I'm still just as excited and scared as ever. We are just plugging away every day.



The most wonderful, magical part of this all:

It took a little while for our baby to move. At least for me to feel it. James left for Sweden on May 14. I felt the baby move the night before and that morning. But each time James put his hand on my belly, our little man would stop. So James went for almost 3 weeks without having felt his baby move. The night James came home, we were lying in bed and our little guy was kicking like crazy. James was finally able to feel him!

His movements have changed from little bumps to more prominent stretching. We can feel his little body parts. (I'm not very good at this and don't know which parts are which yet.) I just love it. It's the most amazing feeling! I didn't know how I would feel about it. Some women don't like the feeling of something moving inside them. I love it. I love to rub my belly and push back at him when he pushes on me. And James seems to be enjoying it as well. He likes the feeling of his son moving. I think it's awesome and James is going to be such an amazing father.

Isn't it so awesome! What's cool is when he is born you will recognize his movements because you have felt them.
