25th week and more
My 25th week starts today. Wow. Hard to imagine I’ve made it this far and I really only have 15 more weeks to go. They say the little one is about 12 inches now and I’d believe it with the kicks and moves I’ve felt lately. I’ve been singing more while at home, or humming at the bus stops. Many resources have mentioned the baby’s ability to hear and feel my singing and I definitely want to give her something to listen to.
I’ve been having some weird dreams these days, though none regarding the baby as they predict pregnant mothers have frequently. I’ll wake up, startled, or really disoriented and jumpy. Then, I’ll feel some moving around and some light taps, like the baby is saying “It’s okay, mom, I’m here, you’re fine” and I’m able to go right back to sleep. I’ve always wondered if I’ll bond well with my child, but it’s moments like that where I feel so connected with her, and I’m reassured I won’t have any problems.
John and I signed the rental agreement and received the keys to our new apartment last night. I’m pretty excited, but of course everything still has to be shuffled from one building to the next. It’s frustrating not being able to help move the furniture, since that’s the stuff I love doing, but don’t worry, though, no lifting for me. Just the clothes, blankets, pillows, and kitchen stuff. I just want to get in there and set up the cradle and everything for the baby. Having it all stashed away in storage is driving me nuts.
