In all seriousness, things are going well. This baby is growing and I can feel some pretty crazy movement! I've even felt baby kick my hand which is impressive.
I feel huge too, though I haven't gained much weight this time around. I'm looking forward to dropping some weight after baby is born - but this time, I have realistic expectations.
We find out next Monday what we're having so that will be my next post! Finally! I do think it's a girl, but I have no real inclination either way. A boy would be great, because I've never had a boy before! And a girl would be just as great because it's still a whole new person, plus we have some girl stuff :)
I've had to use my new winter coat already and it works great! So that was fun. And despite looking quite pregnant now, people still don't offer their seats on the train!
