Felt My Baby's Foot

       Last night, I was laying on my side/back, reading. I felt a sharp jab low on my abdomen, so I moved my hand down to rub that spot.. And felt a little ball! As soon as I started rubbing it, it moved away. My baby had kicked me and I felt his foot! His little tiny foot! How awesome is that? I love to feel him move. Before I started feeling him move, I had a very protective feeling over him.. But I didn't actually love him. That sounds bad, but to explain it to you, I didn't feel like I was actually pregnant before he started moving. Now that he's moving, he's so much more real to me. I'm falling in love, every time he moves. Even when he's squishing my bladder.

         Speaking of my bladder, I'm pretty sure Adrian's favorite games are: squish mom's bladder and jab-kick her and make her dance. Seriously. He's just so cute already. He's so spunky :)

Movement is Like a Balloon in My Belly

     Lately, I've been feeling all kinds of movement. Nothing too harsh, though sometimes he does jab me. It's mostly like a finger sliding along the inside of your stomach. I know that sounds incredibly weird, but it's also unbelieveable. It's a baby moving. It's crazy.

    I just took a shower and before I stepped in, it felt like my baby was a small balloon, set loose in my stomach. I love it.

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything, but I've been going through such an emotional swirl of events, that I haven't even thought of posting. I don't want to bore you with too much detail... Apparently I'll be a single mother. I know, it can be done. It just crushed my dream of a family. Being pregnant did not help me cope either. The emotions were awful and I was sobbing for almost a week straight with barely any pause. Thank you, hormones.

     So, in 11 days I'm going back for an anatomy scan because with the first one, my baby didn't want to turn around! I've also felt a lot of movement lately. I love it and can't wait for the full force! My morning sickness is fading away. I've only thrown up twice in the past two weeks. Go me! I think I'm gaining a bit of weight too. I'm still selfconscience about it.. But while wearing maternity clothes, I think I look awesome :)
