18 weeks and Baby Mayes is the size of a sweet potato now! This week I really started to feel Baby Mayes move around a lot more now. He or she is definitely active early morning and late at night - and around dinner time. I know that movement will still be sporadic and not very consistent yet, but feeling movement as much as I am already is exciting.
I had an appointment with our midwife this week. Just our monthly appointment, but Baby Mayes was even active for our midwife. She kept trying to listen to the heartbeat long enough to pick up a heart rate reading on the doppler; however, Baby Mayes had other plans in mind. He or she kept moving around making it hard. Our midwife said sometimes babies are just really active and you have to wonder what they are doing in there. Our next appointment will be for our 20 week ultrasound and as long as Baby Mayes cooperates we'll finally get to find out the gender. Hooray!
