I just have to add that I started feeling the baby move today. I thought I felt him/her about 3 times earlier today and one time in the afternoon. Sometimes little gas bubbles will feel similar to a baby's first movements, but the times I have felt today are definitely different from that. So, I figured I would wait this week and see if I felt it more, but just now as I was preparing a bedtime snack, I felt it a few more times and I am positive its the baby. :)
I felt Nicholas and Celia move at about 16 weeks or so, but they say since you know what it feels like you notice it a little earlier. Tomorrow marks 15 weeks, so its not too early. Its always fun to feel those first movements. I think this baby is nice and healthy too. Even though this baby was a surprise, I'm really excited for him/her.
The last week I've been craving leaf lettuce salads. So this weekend I made a few salads with leaf lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, green peppers and a home-made dressing (balsamic vinegarette, olive oil and a pinch of sugar and garlic), with shredded cheddar cheese and salt/pepper and some parmesan cheese sprinkles as well. DELICIOUS!!! I had a humongous salad for breakfast this morning. I've been eating a lot of fruit and vegetables as well. At least this baby is a good influence on my eating habits (well...aside from the Poptart I'm about to eat before bed)

This is the fun part! I craved salads when I was pregnant with K&B, but more of the crunchy iceburg type. Sounds like this baby is going to be a healthy eater :).
ReplyDeleteHow fun that you felt "it" move!! Let's see some belly pictures next :) Way to go eating all that good food! With you I craved Snickers Candy Bars. Maybe that's where you got your sweet tooth from.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!!! That is the greatest feeling in the world!!!!! I am so thankful that this baby is so healthy!!!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting. Your Grandma Walraven always said she was exactly 4 months when she felt every baby move. Might be okay if you are a week early so you'll be that much more ready to travel for the wedding. Glad everything is going well.
ReplyDeleteKicks are the greatest! And just think!...you know exactly who's kicking you this time. *L* My favorite were the hiccups though. :)
