We're officially signed up for a Bradley Method birthing class that starts in 2 months. And I felt baby move!! More on that below :)
Gender: I'm really excited that we won't be finding out until baby's in my arms! I think I'll take this question out now... it's getting redundant.
Size of baby: An onion
Movement: I felt it I felt it I felt it! Woo hoo! Sunday, February 12 (16 weeks, 3 days. Must remember for the baby book). We were driving home from buying a glider for baby's room (Craigslist find. Cute huh?).
I felt baby karate kick me. It was like a little twitch. So precious! I think I felt it again later at bedtime too, but not sure. Nothing since then though.

Feeling: We're almost half way to having an outside baby and it doesn't seem real enough! There's sooo much to do and learn!
Physically I feel fairly fantastic. I just get pretty tired by the end of the day, and my walk yesterday had me feeling crazy winded after like a block. I just couldn't hang but still got in 40 (pretty slow) minutes.
James had a really bad cold that I managed to avoid. I'm actually thinking it was the flu and I was protected by the flu shot that I got before I was pregnant (my first ever and I got it specifically because I was hoping to get knocked up). Sorry Mom, I know you don't like that term but I think it's funny :) Anywho, hubby has been convinced to get the flu shot next year, and I think I will from now on too.

What I miss: Sleeping soundly through the whole night. Better get used to that.
What I'm looking forward to: Seeing baby at our anatomy scan in 2 weeks, and spending this weekend with my sister.
Best moment this week: Feeling baby move! Also, on Saturday I went to lunch with my parents, aunt, uncle and grandma and then hung out at our house. Fun!
Worst moment this week: A bit of the queasies.
Milestones: Feeling movement obvs. Baby's rubbery cartilage is now turning to bone, and she's putting on some fat. Her umbilical cord is also growing stronger and thicker.
Cravings: Nothing really.
Food aversions: Nothing really.

I can't wait to feel baby move!! And to see you :) Don't worry, my bed is all yours and we'll avoid these hills as much as we can. Love you ♥
The Bradley method relaxation methods were so very helpful birthing you. Practice makes a huge difference!
Movement is sooooo fun!! I'm curious whose Bradley classes you're taking? Loved ours. Definitely credit Bradley at least in part for our incredible, beautiful, wonderful birth. Yay!
