In China, I had a check-up from a Canadian nurse midwife and felt the most incredible thing- our baby's head and bottom. It was such an amazing feeling and the baby is so little still (just 2.5 pounds or so). The nurse midwife checked me at 26.5 weeks and told me that she had been born at 26.5 weeks too- amazing that this little baby could breathe on his/her own now and everything. Also, the baby has been going through a "bouncing off of both sides of me at once" phase- in which he/she kicks from one side and then head butts me on the other side. Occasionally, it hurts, but not too badly, and mostly it's just fun to feel the baby moving so constantly. John still can't keep his hand on my belly after he feels the baby move-everytime he whips his hand back and looks like something crazy just happened.
Just a few months now...
