Hey there! It's been awhile since I've been on here. Scary how time already seems to be flying! I hear it does anything but slow down after the baby gets here!
Things are GREAT around here. I'm getting bigger. My baby girl is getting bigger. Went to the Dr. on Tuesday for a check-up, and her heartbeat was strong and beautiful. My uterus is 24cm...at 24wks. Apparently that's good. Babe totally gave the Dr. a couple of big kicks when she put that cold jelly on my belly, and I just couldn't help but laugh - she's the only one who's felt the baby kick other than Matt!
I'm definitely feeling her every day now - some days more than others - and it's such a delightful feeling! On the days when she's really active, my friend, Stephanie, says that she's "dancing."
Matt and I have started birthing class -Brio Birth. It's a brand new course focused on natural birth...that's right, ladies...I said NATURAL birth. So we'll see how things turn out, but that's my goal! We're learning about healthy diet, relaxation and all sorts of exercises that can encourage smooth birth, and Matt's my birthing coach! I know it's ultimately up to God, and if something goes awry and I have to have intervention it will be OK, but I'd like to bring this baby into the world as peacefully as possible.
We took a "babymoon" to Cincinnati last week for spring break. "Why Cincinnati" you might ask...well, because there's an Ikea there, and neither one of us had ever been there before! We got some great stuff for Babe's room. While there, we went on a segway tour downtown on the riverfront. If you've never been on a segway, I 100% recommend it! SOOOO fun! Plus, we were the only ones on the tour!
Well, I'm lovin' life and feelin' great!
