Another baby update...

I had another doctors appointment today. Mostly just the standard pee in a cup, stand on the scale (covering your eyes to avoid seeing how much you've gained), and cold goop on the belly to hear the racing heart beat.

But I also had to get my glucose tests today...never that fun to be stabbed with needles. Then next appointment I have to get the rH shot...more stabbing...because I have rH negative blood which is bad for Lily.

As I've said before, I've been having a hard time decyphering which movements are Lily's. I know I have felt her move for a couple of weeks now but I'm just never sure which movements are her as opposed to the nausea or the beans I ate for dinner.

So Lily decided to show off a little. Yesterday during Relief Society I had my arms across my belly and she kicked so hard it made my arms lift like an inch! Then today while I was listening to President Monson answer questions at the announcement broadcast she started kicking me like crazy! I think she's pleased with the new first presidency!

Cute. Aren't you so excited to get her out and dress her in cute girly clothes and headbands and bows and...I'm so excited for you!! YAY! Maybe with all that kicking she'll be a good swimmer like you!

Hey! Tell Karen that she's way okay for not coming! I'm excited that you're able to feel Lily move now! It's so much more comforting (maybe not comfortable) to actually feel her in there! I'm also glad to know that I'm not the only Rh - person out there! I hope everything is going well for you Mikel!
