Movement into the 4th month!

This past Sunday marked the end of my 4th month of pregnancy (16 weeks). I can't (and yet, I can) believe that it's been 4 months, already.

On Memorial day, I spent an hour or two by the pool relaxing. I came home and decided to take a nap. Later, when I woke up, I felt a funny flutter on my left side, near the bottom of my rib cage. When it happened again, I realized that this was what the books had been talking about: I was feeling what is called, "quickening," or the flutter of movement from the baby.

This went on to happen a total of five times.

I also awoke last night to the same, funny feeling, and have felt it all day today. What a weird sensation!

Below is my most recent picture--4 months--along with the past 4 months as they progress.

Two weeks until BOY OR GIRL!



ummm...wow. I'm still in awe of the dramatic change this month!!

PS--some pretty Texas Storm pictures from tonight :-)

  1. Hi Julie! Great Pics! I am soo happy for you guys. When I felt that flutter for the first time I laughed and laughed cause it tickled me. I am so ticklish to everything just about. The flutter is no different. I am just guessing from the photo that the baby is carrying low so that means its a boy. Can't wait til next blog.
