Baby girl made finding her heartbeat tough (I wasn't worried because I'd felt her moving around just minutes before the doc came in), but eventually we found her...at the very top of my uterus (which is now a bit above my belly button line)! Definitely not where the doctor expected her to be! She's moving around like crazy in there and according to our books and apps is about a foot long weighing just at one pound.
We're still tossing around names but are narrowing the list a bit (sorry, it's going to be a surprise!) which feels equal parts relieving and crazy because it makes things so real!
Weight gain is thankfully still in a good place - I officially hit the 10 pound mark, which doc says has me right on track for a 20-25 pound total gain. Yay!
Continuing to enjoy these days of good mobility, energy and mood - I know the sluggishness, waddling, and swollen feet aren't far away!
Weeks 21-22 symptoms: moving like crazy! At 22 weeks Brad could feel it and we could even see it, sciatica pain starting after sitting too long esp on right side, stomach starting to feel slightly "heavy" when sleeping on side - pillow helps, getting lots of cute pregnant lady comments - people can definitely tell, got weird strong chills in the middle of the night at 22.5 - doc wasn't sure what it was but is not concerned
