Goodbye week 18

Well, we are now looking at less than 150 days until Baby B makes his/her big arrival! This was also the first week people seemed to start reacting noticeably to my bump :-) Do you think it looks bigger?

This week is also the first full week that I've felt Baby B moving and shaking consistently! What started as a few little nudges that seemed like popcorn popping in my belly has turned into a regular ruckus! It seems Baby likes to rock out right after I've eaten, and Baby also seems to love the organ music at church or music in movies - apparently he/she is either a big fan of the Lord of the Rings movie- or the baby is terrified by the sounds, as Aunt Debbie suggested!. Hopefully the latter is not the case, and this baby is going to watching a lot of sci-fi and fantasy in the Blades house! We already have the Star Trek and astronaut teddy bears ready for the kid.

Next week, week 19, Baby B will be the size of a mango - about 6 inches long and 8.5 ounces. Baby is also yawning, stretching, kicking, and even hiccuping in there. No wonder it feels like a party in my belly! Baby B had just better enjoy it now, because I have a feeling its going be getting a bit more cramped in there as time goes on...
