So I have decided that while it is females that have the baby, being pregnant is one of the most unfeminine things ever. There are bodily functions that my body is committing that I didn't know it could do. Plus the ever growing belly is making it hard for me to sit in "lady-like" positions.
Peanut is getting more and more active everyday. At least getting to the point where I can feel s/he more every day. I think there was once that I could feel the baby on the outside with my hand, but it stopped kicking before Sean could feel it. Our dog, Selene, and I were laying on the floor together earlier and she had her head on my stomach and I could feel the baby move and suddenly she jumped, so I think maybe she felt it too. The same thing happened this weekend while we were visiting Sean's dad and step-mom with their cat. I can't wait till I feel that baby even more and till Sean can feel it.
I have been researching baby items the last week or so and am amazed at how much there is to think about when buying this stuff. I found an amazing book that tells you how to find deals on baby stuff and which brands to avoid and which are the best for your money. I'm trying to figure out most everything I want to register for before we actually go in and register so we are not so overwhelmed at the store.
Less than 2 weeks till we get to find out if we are having a boy or a girl! It will be exciting to be able to start talking about names and stuff, but we are still planning on making the nursery as gender neutral as possible since we are hoping to reuse this stuff in the future.
I'm starting to get a lot of belly rubs and pats. This has only happened from family and co-workers and I'm OK with that. I'm not sure I'm going to like it if an old lady at the grocery store comes up and touches my belly.
