19 weeks

Here is Saturday's picture at 19 weeks! I am definitely starting to grow as is the baby. Its kicks are getting really strong as well. There is no mistaking them for anything else. Whenever i lay down slightly propped up, it kicks me non-stop. Dave was able to feel it kick for the first time today, at least the first non-mistakable kicks. Hes been trying for about 2 weeks (ever since i've felt it) but today the little one was going crazy with kicking so Dave was able to feel it multiple times as were some friends we were with!
I go to my 20 week appointment this Thursday but unfortunately since we just moved I couldn't get my ultrasound appointment that is supposed to accompany the 20 week appointment until May 5th. So that is the day we find out the sex, as long as the baby cooperates and keeps its little legs open.
I am feeling SO much better these days, no more nausea, headaches, exhaustion etc. Well Dave's nightly snoring still leaves me exhausted most days but luckily i can nap if needed. I get backaches and sore feet but luckily Dave gives a good rub :). With Dave and I being able to feel the kicking plus me feeling well again we are both getting really excited and the stress level has gone way down. Its finally feeling 'real'...we're going to be parents in only 21 weeks from now!

I'm really thinking that you should use bikini pictures everytime so that we can really see the difference ;-)
