Rolling with the Punches

Well, I have had a few months now to adjust and I am starting to embrace the whole pregnancy thing. Not to say that every day doesn't present new experiences, questions, concerns or mood swings but I am feeling pretty darn good these days. In the past few weeks I have started feeling the baby move which I absolutely love and Dave felt his first kicks this week while we were on vacation in the Bahamas.

During my 12 week ultrasound I saw the baby flipping and moving around on the screen and thought it was the most bizarre thing ever. I kept thinking that someone should have told me how weird it is to be pregnant. It is hard to comprehend that something is growing and moving inside you when you can't feel a thing. Now that I can feel her, the whole experience is easier for me to make sense of and it is amazing that she is always with me.

And yes, I am one of those pregnant people who talks to the baby, rubs the belly and sings to the baby on my way to work. The baby has already been to a bachelorette party, two weddings, a few bars, a serious dance club, a casino and for some swims in the ocean. I figure it's never too early to start teaching her how to have fun.
