Yesterday I had my first "two week" appointment and it went great. I've had some swelling that hasn't gone away in almost a week, but she told me that it's normal and to just try to increase my water intake and get my feet up as much as possible. I told her that I noticed a little more pressure the beginning of last week so she checked me to make sure our ninja's "door" is closed tight, and it is, but she said she definitely felt his head right there! It was a good appointment and I'm feeling confident our passenger is going to stay put for at least another 7 weeks.
The heartburn has been visiting me at night and is definitely worse after eating something spicy!
I am so grateful for friends with pools! Floating around and feeling weightless for a while is so nice. I don't even realize my aches until after I get out and come back to gravity's full force!
Overall I think I've been very lucky during this pregnancy so far, I can see why people have more than one baby, it's so humbling and grounding. Just know that I am in no way going to try to match my great grandmother's family record of 27!
