Kick, Punch, Squirm

Little Baby Flip is constantly kicking, punching, squirming, grasping, and every other type of movement possible! Every 2 hours or so, it's as if he's trying to find a way out of my stomach, ha! He also decides on certain positions/areas he likes within my belly and will stay in that area for a couple days. Late last week he was determined to stay on my lower right side---he is still squirmy, but stays in a certain area. Over the weekend he was set on staying in the very middle---right behind my belly button...which made it protrude even more! And yesterday and today, he wants to be all over--he is stretched out from the upper left portion, right below my ribs, all the way down to the lower right portion of my abdomen.

He is now approximately 2 pounds and 14-15 inches long...He's growing so fast.

My excitement and energy levels are still high, although my bedtimes are slowly becoming earlier again...I've been finding myself in bed by 9:00. My Dr says it's almost time for me to start feeling tired and really uncomfortable...I most likely have 2-4 weeks left in my "feeling better than ever" part of pregnancy.

In a fun way to take advantage of these 2-4 weeks, Eric and I are headed to Highlands, NC this weekend...This will be our last "just because we want to" get-away as just the two of us.

I hope everyone has a great week! I'll put a picture up sometime this week :)

I googled kicks and baby movement today (I'm 28 weeks and my baby's moving like crazy!) and found your blog. Very cute! Mine's been doing the same thing - finding a position and staying there for awhile. She'll twist and turn, too, which almost makes me sick some days when she's close to my stomach. But I love it! Don't you?
