Adam felt Little Guy kick for the first time on Christmas Day! We were sitting on the couch together watching A Christmas Story, and my stomach was growling because our big feast was almost ready. Our guy must have been hungry too, because he was kicking up a storm!
I'm 19 weeks today - almost halfway there! If only I'd known how great I would feel during the second trimester, it would have made the exhaustion and nausea of the first trimester a little easier to bear. I'm going to enjoy this part to the fullest. I feel great, have plenty of energy, and have a little belly that finally fills out my maternity clothes. I eat my weight in food every day, but have only gained 5 pounds. Plus it's a lot of fun to be able to talk about my pregnancy at work.
Working was a real drag during the first trimester - I felt like hell and just sitting at my desk felt like torture, and I felt very alone not being able to talk to anyone about it. I just recently found out that a girl who works right down the hall from me is due just 4 days before me! It's funny to think I felt so alone when she was going through the same thing.
