22 weeks



Today I had another appointment with my doctor. Tim is on spring break, so he was able to come with me. I told Dr. MacKenzie I still wasn't feeling a lot of fetal movement, so he brought in the ultrasound machine and we spied on the baby for a little bit. We watched her wiggle, spasm, kick (just a little kick), and practice breathing. I love it every time I get to have an ultrasound - it's so reassuring to see the baby wiggling about. Tim was super excited, and said he loved seeing the baby. He hasn't been able to go to the other ultrasound appointments.

I'm still feeling better for the most part - I don't feel great, but I don't expect to feel great until I have the baby. I do have days where I can't stop vomiting, but those days are getting to be fewer and far between (maybe once a week).

Today at the grocery store, the cashier asked when my baby was due. I fibbed and said, "About three months." She said, "Seriously? I thought you were going to say next week!" Thanks a lot, jerk! When we saw the ultrasound, the baby had her legs fully extended. Apparently she likes to stretch out - maybe that's why my belly is so big!
