4 Months Complete

I can't figure out how to re-organize my posts to put this where it goes chronologically. But, here is the 4 month photo!

Touring Preschools/Daycares

On June 21 and 22 I toured 3 daycares/preschools. I went to the Primrose near our house, Merryhill School, and Kids R Kids near school. When comparing location, teacher perks, price, and atmosphere I think we are leaning toward Kids R Kids. I would still love to interview some in-home caregivers, but I have yet to find one with openings. There sure is a lot to think about when looking for a daycare you feel comfortable with. It's a little overwhelming.

First Movements

I noted my first flutters on May 24. It felt like the baby was wiggling its fingers in my stomach. It was so faint, yet caught my attention so strongly! It only happened twice, so I wrote it as a maybe. A week later I had more movements, this time more like a muscle twitch. The next day gave me a good strong thud after one of my sneezing fits. Someone didn't like that!

There were many other little minor movements over the next few weeks. One amazing instance was during yoga on June 21. I very clearly felt the head or bottom pushing out on my stomach. I laid my hand right on it!

My clothes don't fit!

Around the 3rd week of May I began having to "rig" my jeans and pants with rubber bands, etc. I bought the BeBand and a few maternity tops. Mom went out and bought me an amazing selection of maternity clothes that she mailed me. They showed up right on time! I got them washed and started wearing them immediately. Wow! They were so much more comfortable!
