Did I feel you move???

Sooo...I guess I can document my pregnancy a little bit. I am now 14 weeks! Time is flying (kinda). But the biggest news this week is that I think I felt the baby move for the first time! I was at work, and after lunch, a couple people were hangin out in my office, chatting. They asked if I had felt the baby move yet, and I said that I had not. The one girl, who had a baby about six months ago, was telling me how it felt for her, something like a goldfish swimming around a bag. As I sat in my desk chair listening, I swear, I swear!, I felt that exact feeling on the left side of my stomach! I had not felt it before then, and I have not felt it since! Even though I lay in bed and try not to move or breathe and see if I can feel it, no luck. I know it wasn't my belly rumbling, because it was distinctly on the left side of my belly. But I also know that it is pretty early to be able to feel anything, so I acknowledge that it may not have been the baby. But as my belly visibly grows, I am excited to be able to feel this crazy little baby moving around inside of me.

Pregnancy is absolutely amazing, and I am really thankful and honored, especially in light of our previous miscarriage, that God is entrusting us with this little baby's life, and allowing us to experience this miracle!

We go to the doctor this Thursday, and I'm hoping we will hear the heartbeat! I don't think too much else will happen that is exciting, but hopefully he will schedule our 20-week ultrasound (or a little sooner) to find out whether it's a boy or a girl! Stay tuned!
