[/caption]I did not expect it to go by this quickly, but I imagine it will "slow down" during the third trimester when I am waddling more than I am now. I had a patient ask me yesterday if I was pregnant. This is the first time someone has asked me outright. I should have said "no" just to see what she would do when she realized she had just called me fat. Instead I said, "Yes, but you should never ask someone that, just in case they're not pregnant." She said that she had done that before when the woman was not pregnant and almost made the woman cry...some people never learn.

[/caption]At this point, I am definitely feeling the baby moving around/kicking/hiccuping several times a day...and night. I told Jared I thought the baby wasn't supposed to wake me up at night until after it was born. I can sleep through a great many things, but it is difficult to sleep when I am laying still and it feels like there is a hamster running on a wheel inside of me! I am definitely not annoyed by the new sensations, though. I admit, when I am laying there awake, I want to nudge him awake and say, "If your baby and I are not sleeping right now, then neither are you!" I let him sleep though. After the baby is born, I will just tell him he owes me a few months of getting up with the baby at night :)
