22 weeks -baby2012-

22 weeks down, 18 to go! 

Baby is doing well... we are mere weeks from viability.  Baby is now about 11 inches and about a pound in weight.  


I can feel teeny hiccups and movement, though this baby is NOT a mover.  This little one reminds me a lot of June in my belly.  June did NOT move.  I was never worried about him because I would feel hiccups and little rolls enough to not be concerned, but he didn't kick or get rambunctious.  He really did not move often (though obviously, he turned out just fine). This little one seems very low key too.  This should be the time that she is kicking and rolling  since she still has space, but it's a treat if I feel her more than a fleeting movement or 2.  She's sleeping a lot too, but Josh and Eliz were more active in comparison.  I've never had a HIGH energy belly baby, but this one is on the lower end... at least so far.  

I'm feeling ok.  It depends on the day.  I'm still getting headaches and when I do, I'm very tired too.  There were several times this past weekend where Jim asked "What's wrong with you."  All I could reply with was "This is how I always feel."  ::shrug::  I am seeing some better days and that gives me hope. ;)  At 22 weeks the good days should reign! 

I'm excited to be having another girl.  It's such a cool dynamic.... 2 boys 2 girls.  Makes me wonder what the next kids will be and how it will shape our family.  Don't tell Jim I am pondering that... he's only able to process one kid at a time, which is fine since we only get one kid at a time. ;) 

4 more months to go!

I can't even imagine what a low-key baby belly would be like. Both of mine were crazy HIGH energy!
