Last week was a good week: my parents visited and helped Ryan complete some lingering projects around the house, then we had an old friend that we hadn't seen in about 8 years stay with us for the weekend. It was nice to catch up and learn some new board games (and that I can't add up dice anymore) and have a weekend of relaxing and having fun.
I woke up one morning last week with a wicked leg cramp, thankfully, my husband is wonderful and massaged it right away to make it feel better. I have been noticing more of what I can only classify as "pregnancy aches." New. A nice hot shower or a different sitting position seems to help. Taking a long walk on Friday in the sun was helpful as well. So there are things I can do to help myself. Still have the hip pain at times.
Ok, done contemplating my pains. I promise. :)
Declan weighs almost 2 pounds (about as much as a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long and sleeping and waking at regular intervals. His brain is very active now and he may regularly get the hiccups!
Below is my pregnancy photo update.
My reaction to seeing this picture: I slapped Ryan on the arm twice and said, "Holy crap, I LOOK pregnant!" He laughed at me.
I feel Declan move regularly now, and sometimes quite forcefully and uncomfortably. He is getting stronger. :) I still find it precious because God is knitting together life inside of me! It seems that he likes to sit right underneath my ribs on the right side of my body. At least, I think that's his head I'm feeling and pushing down when it gets uncomfortable!
Those are all the updates I can remember for this week!
TTFN!
