Up’s:
Seeing your hand for the very first time
The second flutter, realizing what the first really was
Feeling the first kick on your 20 week anniversary
Feeling you kick after I eat something sweet
Picking out a new wardrobe
Picking out the fabric for your room
Finally having a clear picture of the complete nursery
Talking to you in bed while you kick away
Counting down the days until you meet your dad
Down’s:
Watching these pink lines show up all over my body
Not being able to sleep in any position
Watching and waiting until the feet start to grow and swell
Picking out a new wardrobe and packing the old one away
Dealing with the surge of hormones, crying every day about something pointless
Not being able to lift over 20 pounds
Being sore after a light afternoon walk
