a house, a baby, and a kick



Well, once again...it's been awhile since I have given you all an update- and there seems to be a lot to say! Well, first on the list is we have bought a new house- We are very excited! The house is down in the Steel Creek area of Charlotte, which is right south of Carowinds-very close to the South Carolina border. We should be closing towards the end of May- it is your typical 3 bedroom 2.5 bath- it also has a big back deck across the back with a fenced in yard. The house backs up to a small creek and woods- I owe a HUGE "Thank You" to my sister who has helped us through the process of 'house hunting'!!
Okay, I know you all want some baby news!!! I have been to the doctor 3 times in the last several weeks!! I know, thats a lot- I guess I am just a crazy pregnant woman who is going to jump at every chance I get to see my baby- well, not really, but kind of- ALL I ever wanted 7 weeks ago, was just to see him/her! Now, I've seen him/her enough! Not really- but yes, 3 times!! The coolest thing is to see how much the baby has actually grown! The issue is, I have a hematoma- which is like a bruise outside of the sack the baby is in (sound gross I know- but it's okay) I was first told to take it easy and not push myself so much- well, that's kind of hard for me. Anyway, this last time I went to the doctor (I was 15 weeks) she said the hematoma has got about 1cm bigger than was 2 weeks before, but she isn't too worried about it at this point in the pregnancy, and just to keep taking it easy. So, every chance I get, I sit down- which isn't too often.
At 15 wks 3 days I swore I felt the baby move. Then I didn't feel it again for several days- until last night- the same bubble feeling; and again several times today. So, I am pretty sure it is the baby I am feeling-If not, cause I know I am early on that, I want to think it is. It is the coolest feeling in the world- but I know I am talking to the choir! I go back to the doctor on this Friday; and I am sure they will do another ultra sound just to check up on things and make sure that thing hasn't got any bigger.
Hope all is well with each of you- and Happy Mothers Day!!
