The last few weeks I have been reading on all my pregnancy websites about when you can feel the baby move. They call it "quickening" when you first feel the baby, and it can first occur anytime between 16 and 20 weeks. The article said it would feel like a little butterfly flutter, or popcorn popping. I have been anxiously waiting to feel our baby move! Today I was looking up pictures of what babies look like at 16 weeks and development thus far when, all of a sudden I felt our baby move for the very first time!! It was the neatest feeling and I cannot stop thinking about it. I want the baby to move all day long!! I am just so in love with this little one.
The countdown to find out the sex has officially begun! We have our first ultrasound appoinment on October 22nd and we hope to find out then. My friend Dawn had suggested a really cute and fun way of telling people what your having and I think we might do it. Once you find out the sex you go and get a cake made with either blue or pink frosting inside. Thenyou have friends and family over to have the cake and celebrate andd when you cut into it everyone will know if it is a boy or a girl! I loved this idea and can't wait to do it. It will have to be that same night becasue I can't hold it in for too long.
We just found out my sister who is pregnant is having a baby.... GIRL! I am so excited to be having a niece. Now that she is having a girl I kind of think we are having a boy. A girl would be fun because she will be so close with her cousin, but a boy would be fun for my dad because he had 3 girls and is hoping for a grandson. We joke and say it will be another girl, and he will have 3 daughters and 2 granddaughters! So either way I don't care what it is, just praying for a healthy baby, but I just want to know already!!!
