The baby kicks have definitely begun. Now I can rest a bit easier.

Update on #2

Yea, that's right I forgot I'm pregnant. We're at 18 weeks now and I believe I've occasionally felt a little fluttering going on but it's been hard to tell. It was making me nervous for a while, but atleast at my appointment today with the midwife I got to hear the heartbeat and felt better. Things are definitely progressing and I'm showing a lot more this time than I did with Angela - granted that is usually the case with subsequent pregnancies and some of the credit is due to the extra inch or so of fat that I've been carrying around. "So far" (fingers double-crossed) my weight gain during this pregnancy has been undercontrol. I know at some point the first time I gain about 12lbs in one month, which was scary and I don't think I've past that point yet so lets hope things continue at the steady pace they've been at. Next week we have the second and most likely final ultrasound. We've opted to not know the sex this time around which is perfectly fine with me. Now we have the stressful task of figuring out what we want to name this child. We both knew we wanted the name Angela and now we're going back and forth over both boy and girl names. No verdict as of yet, but it's definitely starting to give me a headache.
