I totally missed out on 16 weeks! There was quite a bit of crazy happening like Buttons becoming an auntie! And since Buttons is my photographer and owner of the chalkboard, we just had to skip it! Which kinda stinks because 16 weeks is when I first felt this baby move! And let me just say this kid is strong! Even my Darling Husband was able to feel it! I had my 18 week check up yesterday and my midwife looked skeptical of my tales of this strong baby. I think she just has a negative outlook on things anyways though. Did I mention that she told me not to even hope for a girl since I already have 2 boys!? I swear if this kid has a vagina I hope she is the one who delivers so I can do an in-yo-face dance.
18 weeks!!! I can't believe it is going this fast! Okay! Truth moment... I should stop using so many exclamation marks because for some reason, I'm really not that excited... which is probably why things seem to be flying for me. I am feeling kind of apathetic about it all right now. I have no interest in thinking of baby names. I don't care if it's a boy or a girl. I don't get super excited when baby moves. I don't think you could tell I feel this way without me actually telling you because I talk about my pregnancy a lot and I try to get friends and family to feel the baby move (since it seems to only perform for me and Russell), I take lots of pictures and look at baby stuff online but I do all that to try to make myself excited about it, I take pictures because I am worried I will regret it if I don't. Maybe it's because we aren't finding out the sex, or maybe I am just overwhelmed with the kids I have. I am certain when this baby is in my arms I will fall completely in love. But for now, that's it the honest truth... No lovely lies, no exclamation marks.
On the up side!!! My baby is the size of a pickle and I DO like pickles.... since being pregnant that is.. to tell you the truth I didn't really like them before unless it was with something but never before have I enjoyed eating lone pickles. Is it wrong that I was eating a pickle during this week's photoshoot?
(18 weeks baby's bones are hardening so I can feel lots of kicks!)
