Well Baby Stover is 18 weeks old and on Tuesday April 12th I felt him/her move! I was at work and sitting with a small group of kids during reading group. It may have been the combination of a full bladder, tight fitting work pants and being one of the only times that I get to actually sit during the day but whatever it was I definitely felt movement. It was not what I was expecting or what others described as feeling. What I felt was NOT a flutter or fish like. This was a full movement... not tiny at all. The feeling continued throughout the day and it was amazing and familiar all at the same time. Brandon is very jealous. I'm looking forward to the moment he is able to feel Baby Stover as well. As I am typing this, he/she is moving around.
On to Baby Stover's growth. This week Baby Stover is the size of a sweet potato and is busy hiccuping, yawning, sucking, swallowing, rolling and twisting. And if it is a HE and is anything like his Daddy he's probably in there wrestling too! If it is a SHE and is anything like me, she's either napping or whining. Either way our sweet potato could not be more loved! Today Grandma Tara bought Baby Stover his/her beautiful matching dresser for his/her room and railing for the toddler bed. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Stover!
