This photo was taken at 19 weeks 3 days. Definitely getting a belly! I never realize how it looks from the outside until I walk past a mirror or see a photo. It's easy to rationalize it away and think I don't really look pregnant. It's getting harder to find a comfortable position to sleep in, but I'm experimenting with different pillow configurations and will survive. :) Every morning when I wake up, it's amazing but I look and feel a little bigger! Last night one side of my belly felt really hard-- the baby's getting bigger and I can't wait to feel a head or little rump. Movements are progressing to jabs and kicks from little tiny flutters.

Here is a clip of a doppler device broadcasting the baby's heartbeat (and movements!) from my OB appointment at around 20 weeks (on April 22). Very exciting!! I have an ultrasound scheduled for May 11th and can hardly wait to see him/her, and in 3D! We are still so thankful everything is progressing well and everything looks healthy and is "just like it should be."
