Things are getting really crowded in utero but I am starting to worry that I am really going to miss being pregnant. The baby has been in the same basic position for days now (getting too crowded to flip around much!) so I am 99% sure where basic body parts are positioned. He/she keeps kicking me on my left side, or just pressing there, constantly, and it makes a bump that feels like a knot or something. It’s weird, I love feeling that little foot with my hand, and someday it won’t be there anymore. I know where his/her back is, and I keep putting my hand there, as if it were a baby sleeping on my chest (well, except my baby is upside-down in there). I feel so close to this baby, and soon he/she will be outside and I will have to share!
Of course, I am excited about sharing, especially with Samuel. I’m excited to give birth. And I am excited to be able to see the baby. Hmm, and have a more varied wardrobe. And be able to sleep on my stomach.
