I am 23 weeks pregnant and could not be more thankful. This baby boy is well loved already. He started kicking on January 5th- right around 21 weeks. Jason felt him move about a week later. Now, he is getting big enough that I can sometimes feel him move throughout the day- not just when I am sitting down and focusing.
What a blessing it is to feel this miracle moving inside of me. I love him so much already and can hardly wait to meet him!
What I'm feeling: Stressed. Between all our drama with foster care, Comprehensive exams/graduate school/research project plus the normal drains of teaching, I am exhausted and stressed. Which makes me feel guilty because I worry that is hurting the baby. Thank the Lord for Jason- he made me a pregnancy massage appointment that I cannot WAIT to go to on Tuesday! Praying for stamina and energy to get through the next few weeks. With my energy the way it has been lately, I need help because I certainly cannot do it on my own!
What I'm thinking: Wondering about our little girl's future and what that will look like. Foster care breaks my heart.
What I'm doing: I only worked out five times this week. No strength training for me- short amounts of cardio on the elliptical while reading articles for Comps! Too much to do!
