BABY BOO IS 18 WEEKS OLD AND ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PAPAYA
ARMS AND LEGS ARE BUSY FLEXING AND MOVING
I've started feeling Boo move in little flutters and it's SO exciting!! I've been anxiously waiting for it and it happens mostly when I'm lying down to go to bed. There have been a lot of physical changes. My hips (which have always bothered me with nagging discomfort) have begun to KILL if I lay on my side for extended periods of time. At this stage it isn't safe to lay flat on my back (the baby's heart rate can drop due to circulation being cut off) but I can't sleep on my side because I wake up with both hips throbbing and pain shooting down my legs. So I built my own personal Preggo Pillow Pile with a combo of throw pillows, my previously useless body pillow, and my bed pillows. Now I can sleep on my back but in a reclined position and it is oh-so-comfy!!
