I can't believe I am half way there! I can honestly say there are still moments that I can't believe this is actually happening.
I had a really cool experience this weekend. I was at the beach with girl friends for the weekend and I felt really distinct movement for the first time. I was sitting up reading a book in my beach chair when my tailbone started to hurt. So I laid the back of the chair down and flipped over onto my stomach. As soon as I got comfy, I felt a tap, tap, tap, tap, tap in my lower abdomen. Its was so cool and was the first time I felt something I could definitely say was the baby. Of course I immediately flipped over, assuming this was Lillian's way of tell me I was squishing her by laying on my stomach. LOL. It was pretty cool. I can't wait for DH to get to feel her move.
I'm starting to feel really overwhelmed. There is so much stuff to buy and so many decision to be made. I've been pretty relaxed my whole pregnancy and all of the sudden I feel like its time to get my butt in gear. Its amazing how much time you can spend researching something and still have no idea what is the best thing to get! ugh!

I am so happy for you!! It must be an amazing feeling to feel those little taps from inside!
I can only imagine how researching baby items takes up all of your time....there are just so many choices out there! Sometimes when I see a stroller I like on the street, i will go home and research it and add it to my baby folder....and I don't even have a bun in the oven!
This is an exciting time for you!
I hear you! I just keep telling myself that our moms didn't have access to half the stuff we do and we all turned out fine...it's helping to calm me down when I am feeling overwhelmed! They need to stop making so many choices!
awww! miles (who was on my left side) used to protest whenever i laid on that side. the other two didn't seem to mind. :)
have you heard about this consignment sale? ccexnola.com
it's pretty good, i just dropped off a bunch of stuff, but you can get some great deals on stuff. if you want. :D
Thanks for the heads up! I'll definitely check it out!
Your pregnancy is flying by!!
And isn't feeling movement so cool? I miss that th most about being pregnant.
How are you 20 weeks already?! Man time is just flying!
Researching baby items is totally overwhelming. Do you have the book "Baby Bargains"? It definitely helped me out. If you ever have any questions about a specific item and whether it was worth it to buy or not, let me know. I was clueless and wish I had known more about baby products!
so awesome! I'm so excited for you. And movement is the best!
