Your father's reactions

So you've been much more active in the past couple of weeks. You're more active late at night or early morning when I haven't been very active and rocking you to sleep with my movements. I'll get up around between 4 and 5 am to use the bathroom and when I lay back down you start moving around. Then I can't fall back asleep because I love feeling you kick and I don't want to miss any!

Your dad's reactions to your movements are really funny. About a week ago, we laid down to go to sleep and you were having none of that and you started moving like crazy! I put his hand over where you were most active (although you were all over the place). He says, "Whoa! How do you fall asleep with her doing that?!" With some of your kicks (or punches) they're strong enough and close enough to the surface that I can see my belly move. Your dad saw that for the first time two days ago. His reaction was, "Holy crap!" He's so funny!

You and I have started going to prenatal yoga. You're pretty quiet during the majority of it while I'm moving. At the end we relax and just lie down to let the muscles relax. Of course, that's when you decide you're ready to go and tumble on your own!

2 more weeks and then we're in the third trimester! Your dad is really excited to meet you and I've never been a patient person so we can't wait until you're here!
