23 weeks pregnant!

At 23 weeks I feel like I look VERY pregnant...now I know most people who have seen me say I am all belly but it is SO noticeable to me!

I am feeling sore from the kidney stones but I have all kinds of pregnancy symptoms on top of that. I am having hot flashes. I can't sleep with covers on anymore otherwise I wake up sweaty and right now 45 outside and I have our patio door wide open! It is also getting harder to sleep because little Lincoln is moving a lot at bedtime. He reacts to me getting up in the middle of the night to pee too. As soon as I am up he starts to roll around. (I love the movement though, I will lay awake and feel him move for a good 15 minutes before I try to sleep)
John hasn't been able to feel the baby move however last night Lincoln was pushing up on my right side as I was laying in bed and John reached over and felt what I think was his little booty backed up into my side! Our little dog, Wicket got to feel the kicks yesterday! He was laying across my lap and Lincoln kicked right at where wicket was touching my belly. Poor dog jumped up and stared me down like I poked him! lol

At 23 weeks the baby is over a pound!





It is truly amazing to see all the changes that are happening not only to me but to the baby and our life together.
