I didn't necessarily believe people when they told me that you would be able to see your baby, literally pick out a hand, foot or the top of their head when they move around. Within the past few days, I've really noticed an increase in movement-Ellie moves probably 80% of the day now and when I wake up at night (to use the bathroom for like the 10th time) she is moving then too!
Yesterday, I sat at breakfast with my coworkers waiting for our staff development meeting to start...and then she started moving like crazy. Well not only could you see my stomach moving like it was the ocean during a storm, BUT I could actually tell that her head was on the right side and her feet were on the left side. My belly had this strange bulge...I was like ummm are preggo bellies supposed to become uneven...and then I felt, slightly pushing, on that right side AND YOU COULD TOTALLY TELL IT WAS THE BABY!!! Such a cool feeling!
Jeff has gotten to feel her a lot too-and see her moving around. Sometimes, depending on how she is laying, you can touch a part of my stomach and pick out if its just a part of her torso or if it's a tiny foot or hand!! Very very neat-you still can't tell by just looking, it really just looks like I have a tumor or something, but you can totally feel it!
On that note- I am really ready for this pregnancy to be over with and to finally have the lil' one out here and with us. We've done so much thinking about what she will look like, who she will take after, if she'll like her clothes or bedding or even will she like us...that I am just tired of waiting. I think Jeff is too.
BTW...anyone willing to donate money so we can get a new back door? lol
