Kicks

Baby girl is kicking a lot lately. Eating something sweet, driving in the car, or laying down at night all seem to get her going. I've read that over the next weeks I'll feel less kicking and the movement will be more shifting and turning, with some elbow jabs thrown in. I guess space is getting tight in there.

At last measurement, she was 3.5 pounds and I can't believe how much more she's going to gain. Lately my belly has felt cumbersome and as my lungs and other organs have less room, exercise (and everything, really) has become more difficult. I'm wearing my FitBit everyday and get as much walking in as I can. I've had a few dreams about swimming, so maybe I'll get a chance to take a dip in the near future. Although shopping for a maternity bathing sounds like a less than fun task. :)
