Just a little additional note...According to the header above, only 12 weeks left! That's a crazy thought. I know it works out to be almost 3 months, but 12 weeks seems so short. I've got a lot to get done between now and then.
So far, Jaxon has been a pretty mellow baby; meaning that he doesn't move around a whole lot. It frightens me at times- it's hard not to worry when I can't see what's going on. All I have is feeling. So yesterday in a moment of near panic, I broke out the prenatal heartbeat monitor April loaned me. It says it's to be used in the third trimester and since I only have a few days to go before I'm considered 3rd trimester I thought what the heck. And it works great! I could hear him moving around and once I started using it Jax came to life. I don't think he liked the monitor too much, he kept kicking at it. It was fun to kinda be playing with him! And then I even found his heartbeat and Eric got to listen to him. April had told me a friend of hers (who actually is the owner of the monitor) didn't really like the gadget so I didn't have real high hopes for it, but with a lot of patience I really liked it. I think I'm going to get it out right now. Have a good night!

I'm 25 weeks, and sometimes I feel like my baby isn't active enough either. I am told by many including my doctor that there will come a time, when I will wish for these days again. I mostly notice him at night, and I always love hearing his heart beat at the doctors appointments. It's the one thing I really look forward to. I am only a couple weeks behind you (my due date is March 21st), but I too feel like that seems so short. I feel like I have so much to do still, but we can't really work on the baby room until Christmas is over with. One thing at a time. Congrats to you!! :)
If only I had known when I wrote this that I would be meeting my little guy in 8 days... What a crazy time I had ahead of myself and I didn't even know it.
