So... baby A has decided that she needs more room in my belly. With her extra stretching, my Mom and Allan saw my skin move - stretching and wave-like... weird! I, of course didn't see it because I was feeling it!
My belly continues to move and grow throughout the day... I carry her low in the morning, but by the time the afternoon comes, she is riding high and wide...
The crazy thing is that I feel as heavy as a whale... but according to my doctor, I have only gained a total of about 8 lbs. I guess I lost weight and didn't notice??? I am expected to gain 20 lbs. the next 6-8 weeks and I seriously don't know if I will still fit the maternity clothes I have now. I have had to buy maternity bras... they are comfy but definitely not the prettiest. And they don't match the maternity (granny) undies!
The cool thing is that each time Allan catches me looking at myself in the mirror rubbing my belly, he comes up to tell me how beautiful I am... =)
