Week 19

I felt it move :)

There were two points yesterday where I was like.. "was that..?" "Did it move?" But I had a hard time deciphering it from gas bubbles that are also common during pregnancy..

This morning, however, I am pretty positive. I woke up around 5 (Matt was up early for work) and rolled over to my left side.  It felt like I ate a burrito and that burrito did a somersault. Or that something was petting my insides, trying to get out.  It was a little different feeling than a gas bubble.  After about an hour (yeah.. no falling back asleep for me) I was partially on my back, waiting to see if I felt anything else.  I lightly pushed my belly, squishing things around.  It seemed to have awaken something.  The movement was more obvious and squirmy, but very fun.

I am fine after my little fall scare, my knee is the only lingering pain (I took a good chunk out of it.)

My cousin, Kevin, seems to be fighting back really hard and is making a lot of progress. He moved his legs a little this weekend, which is fantastic! They now have him working his leg muscles, trying to get more movement and control.  It's a slow, frustrating process, but we are all getting more hopeful and Kevin is definitely not giving up.

Busy week ahead! Meetings about wedding gowns, vet appt for Cinder and my 20 week ultrasound on Friday.  Boy or Girl? What's it gonna be?  (Psst.. I had a dream it was a boy. So I am either prophetic, or it's going to be a girl to spite my dream)
