Baby Bethany

Bethany is at 25 weeks now, so that means about 15 more weeks to go! She has been moving around/shifting her weight for the last month or so, and it felt more like a change in pressure for me. Then about 2 days ago I was surprised to wake up to odd bumps and blips in my belly. It was a little startling to figure out that she was kicking and stretching her feet. I told her dad, and being still half-asleep said in his quiet and stern voice, "Bethany, don't kick Mommy." It took a second before he realized that, oh! She's actually moving her appendages now! We had been waiting for that since week 16. :)

The crazy citrus/acidic cravings have just about passed now, though I still do enjoy the sour stuff.

I'm not terribly keen on some of the unattractive side-effects of pregnancy, causing some discomfort and ... unattractive effects. Oh well, comes with the territory.
I'm also starting to look for good OB docs here, which really isn't too hard, given that there's a huge medical community here in Houston. It's been recommended to stay close to our new home, so I'll likely be heading to Women's Hospital of Texas at the medical center.

In other side news, one of Bethany's uncles is getting married in 2 weeks! We're excited!
