Feeling kicks!

Last night after a long, busy weekend I was sitting watching TV and felt the baby move! It was the first time I was able to feel something, it felt like little flicks against my stomach for about 10 minutes. Unfortunately Joe wasn't home but not sure he would have been able to feel anything anyway though as they were ever so slight.

Today I had my 4 month follow up appointment. We had this ultrasound done, this is the 3rd time but figured I would just post this one since there are so many! Kind of looks like the baby is waving! Still no definitive answer but the doctor is still leaning towards a girl. It's still a bit early to tell so we are waiting before we get rid of all our old boy stuff!

I have been on a no lifting restriction for the past 10 days but the doctor said next week I can go back to normal activity. All is well and I'm feeling great. I've gained a total of about 5 pounds but it certainly looks a lot more than that! No cravings yet but still not back to wanting vegetables as much as I should although I eat fruit all day long.

I have a follow up appointment in 2 weeks and hope to get a belly picture up before then so you can see how I'm growing.

Yahoo! First day of the 2nd trimester and things are going well. We moved this past weekend and it was difficult not to do any lifting but it is nice to be finally moved.  Still a lot of unpacking to do but we can do that over time. I'm feeling great but feel hungry every couple of hours. With this hot & humid weather it's a little hard to get out walking but I try to walk at least a mile every morning. I don't have another doctor appointment until July 20th and it will be too early even then to find out whether it's a girl or a boy... the suspense is killing me! 
Will post 4 month picture soon - more than likely w/Logan in it!
