Last Wednesday I began my 19th week. I am now more than half way to week 20. The baby is becoming more active daily. It seems every day this week has been a new experience for me. The baby has decided it likes to wedge itself between my uterus and bladder, causing me to have bladder pain and frequent urination as well as a hard not in the front of my uterus. This is very painful. I normally can get the baby to move if I massage my uterus for a while. Other than this, the baby doesn't move its postion in my stomach very much. I kicks in roughly the same spot every time. I go for my next ultrasound on June 7. Hopefully we will get to see what the baby is since this is the last ultrasound they will give us unless there is a problem with the baby. With every kick and movement I fall more in love with this baby. This is an experience I could never have prepared for. It is so different from what I expected. The baby moving is the oddest feeling I have ever had. I haven't grown very much larger yet. I have probably only gained a couple of pounds since my last doctors appointment. I seem to be progressing normally. I am so very happy about this.
