1. Baby Kicks: I've felt 3 things that I'm pretty sure are kicks. The first 2 were May 1st and 2nd, just as I was settling down on my left side to sleep. It felt...almost like a ligament shift, but there aren't ligaments there. Felt almost like The Kid did a flip-turn against my left belly, like maybe when I laid down, he drifted downwards, then kicked off to center himself again. The third was yesterday in the Knee Doc's office. He asked me to lay on my belly, and I swear, just when the belly was fully compressed, I felt what could only be a kick right in the front center, followed by a few flutters. I imagined The Kid saying, in a Cartman voice, "Moooooom, there's no room in here!"
2. This week is week 4 of doing week 2 of Couch to 5K. I've been running longer than my 90 seconds all week, though, this morning doing 1 90 second interval, 4 2 minute intervals, and closing with a 3 minute interval. I think I'm ready for week 3 next time I go out. Finally. (Again, it isn't the knee, it is The Kid that is holding me back.)
3. One of the weirdest things about being pregnant is that maternity pants are mostly elastic waisted, so you never have to zip a zipper. Now whenever I wear regular pants (I can still fit into my "fat" pants from 2006/7), my fly is usually down because I've gotten out of the habit of zipping it!!
