23 week Update

I am 23 weeks and 4 days pregnant and couldn't feel any better!

I am getting more sleep at night and my energy level has gone back to normal. I am hoping this lasts a while!!

Our little girl has been happily moving all around and kicking me for the past month. She has been on a pretty normal schedule, being very active in the middle of the night and also around 8-10am, then again in the afternoon around 2-4pm. It is a great feeling to know that she is doing well. Although, she has managed to find my bladder and enjoys kicking it like a kickball!

She doesn't mind it when I place my hand on my belly, but when my husband tries to feel her kicks, she stops! As soon as he removes his hand she starts kicking again. It is funny how even in the womb babies favor certain touches. She also has been kicking like crazy every time I am driving. Maybe she doesn't like the vibrations.

I go to the doctor on the 22ND of this month for my 24 week appointment. Her heart rate was at 160 BPM at 20 weeks which is good. It is supposed to start getting slower now that her organs and such are all developed.

I found the perfect bedding for her nursery! I always thought I would get Pottery barn Kids bedding, but their stuff from the winter months/early spring didn't catch my eye and seemed a bit boring. I want something that is bright and colorful. Most of their stuff is white and pastelly. BUT I went into the Pottery bark Kids store this week and fell in love with this set. It is called "Mia" and looks much more vibrant in person than on the website. I love the pinks greens and oranges mixed with polka dots!
