A few people have asked how I'm feeling. So here's a little update. No more morning sickness/nausea. Yay! I'm so glad to be over that. This little girl is going to be a soccer player, I think. She is such an active little kicker. She's already discovered my bladder and is quite fond of kicking it. Not so fun. I, amazingly, am still wearing my regular clothes, but today I had to put a rubber band on the button on my jeans. The waist band is getting just a little snug. It won't be too much longer before people at church actually believe that I'm pregnant. haha
I've started having some contractions (Yikes!) and back pain from carrying her more in my back than out front. Anyone else carried a baby this way? I'm desperate to know how to relieve the pain a little bit. I know it's only going to get worse and, frankly, that scares me a little bit. Oh well. At least I'm on the downward slope now. Only 19 weeks to go. Maybe 18 if my doctor is feeling generous!

still in your old clothes.. good for you:) I cannot believe you only have 19 weeks left... AH!!!! That scares me a little! We wish you the best & let us know when you are in SLC again.. we miss you guys!!
I am lucky to get to carry all of my little kiddos right in my back. I remember those back pains... and sorry the only "relief" for that is when you deliver her. Although, I also got to enjoy HORRIABLE back labor with all 3! Sorry not much help. But, I am glad that all is well!! Best of luck! Any names??
I'm glad the morning sickness is gone that is always nice, but the back pain doesn't sound fun. Good luck with that and keep us posted on those contractions.
Okay so something that has helped me is called pelvic tilts. It really is only a very temporary relief. Stand with your legs hip length apart. Then push your butt back and then scoop it forward, moving it slightly downward then back to normal. I hope that makes sense. If not, sorry!
