Fast Forward to Week 25

 I am now visibly pregnant, as evidenced by my co-workers whom I do not frequently socialize with coming up to me saying 

"Oh my gosh, I had no idea you were pregnant until now!"

Yes.  I have popped.  

Week 5 on the left.  Week 25 on the right.

Over the past 2-3 weeks I have endured some painful stomach stretching.  I no longer fit into any of my pre-maternity clothing (mainly shirts, the stretchy pants still fit).  If you had any question before about my pregnancy, you would not now. (Side note: my dogs love to jump into my "bump pics").  

By looking at the comparison picture it is easy to see 2 things; 

1-I look pregnant.  2- I think I may grow my hair out a little.

Currently I am enjoying being pain free 

(more to come on that story... please pray my kidney stone continues to not act up, 

or as my MD say's "resolve itself one way or the other.")  

and feeling my baby move around and do only what I think of as somersaults in my stomach.

I have come to learn that my child is stubborn, already...read I have no idea if the baby is a boy or girl because he/she did not want me to know.  Baby F also seems to enjoy periods of rest throughout the day, but always is awake for my morning drive to work and tends to move around to faster beat songs as I drive.

I can't wait to finally get to meet my little one. Due date is 7.11.11
