At our midwife appointment yesterday, Boo's heart sounded like a galloping horse! 143 beats per minute, and detected immediately, which was a big relief after last time when it took FOREVER to find the woosh-woosh sound. I'm also happy to report that my "uterus is exactly where it's supposed to be." What a relief, Ms. Midwife, I was worried it might be migrating!
Monday will be 20 weeks, and last night I felt small kicks for the first time. I can't wait till Tommy can feel them too. It will also be amazing when Brie is lying on my stomach and feels it move from the inside. She's going to flip out.
I officially need to wear maternity pants, but thankfully many of my empire-waist dresses are functioning just fine to cover the bump. A generous donation of clothing from our friend Jen Lai is also saving us plenty on shirts and sweaters. There's one hooded wrap in particular that I love to cozy up in after the gym or just around the house.
With the kicks and my growing belly, I'm more aware of Boo's presence daily. I find myself talking to her any time we're alone. Nice to know she can hear me now.
