I felt the baby move for the first time!
Up until yesterday (19 weeks, 4 days) I hadn't felt anything at all, which was a little concerning for me since I felt Olivia at 17 weeks and by 19 weeks full on kicks and wiggles. And most people say you feel the second one much earlier than the first, but it's also normal not to feel baby till much later especially if the placenta is in the front.
In two weeks we have the anatomy scan (we are still planning on not finding out the gender) and I'm excited because Olivia will be there with us and I'm hoping that seeing the baby will help her understand better that we are having a baby! Though, today she was saying a prayer and she said "thank you for baby". It was the cutest, she is going to be such an amazing big sister,she loves babies so so much.
We've narrowed down our name choices to just a few for each gender so that's exciting and a relief! I've been feeling ok. I can finally drink water (if it has lemon) without gagging. I still have to take my medicine at night or the next day is bad.
John took his first final and has two left and then our 3 week Christmas break starts, which is going to be so busy!
We have the anatomy scan, then that weekend is Christmas. We will be spending it at John's grandparents here in Utah with John's whole immediate family. Which is exciting because we haven't all been together at the same time since I think our wedding! Then, the next week John's youngest sister is getting married!
And the big news, the first week of January we are moving up to Salt Lake county. We were going to wait till after the baby is born but we decided that would be way too stressful and hard since John will need to start studying for the bar and then brand new baby. So, we decided the best time would be before I get huge and before John goes back to school I don't have to do it all on my own. It's a big change. Not in the move because we have moved so much and to different states but the place is huge, recently remodeled, has a garage, a laundry room, a back yard, tons of storage space, and will cost more (salt lake county is surprisingly expensive!). Oh and it's only 10 minutes from the firm John is working at! It's a little scary, but John will be done with school forever, starting his first career job, and we won't be moving till we decide to buy a house in a few or more years from now. So, hello real adulthood.
