20 weeks


Well...we've reached the half way mark of 20 weeks. The baby is moving more and more. Brett has now felt and seen the baby move in my tummy. I think it's safe to say that I've reached the point where it is obvious I'm pregnant...no more questions.

The Ultrasound


The Doctor told us today that everything looks perfect. Praise God! We watched our baby's little heart beat and got a great view of it's spine. We have pictures and video to cherish. Last night I not only felt the baby move, but I watched my tummy move. Brett has also been able to feel the baby push...not just a "thump" on the wall of my tummy. He is still in awe.

Moving Right Along

Last night, Brett was able to feel the baby move for the first time. I have been questioning the feelings for almost 2 weeks now...trying to determine what was indigestion or possibly baby movement. After recognizing a consistent thumping feeling, I was ready to admit that, yes, I have felt the baby moving. Last night, we were reading on the internet what happens during the 19th week of pregancy when we read that the baby is tumbling around. I felt a "thump" and let Brett place his hand on my belly where I had felt it. A few seconds later he said, "I felt it!" It was an exciting moment for both of us.
