Up until now I've only felt little thumps and kicks here and there to let me know Georgia Lou is there. Last night I laid down on my side in bed to watch a little tv before I went to sleep and what I felt was much different than before. If I pressed my hand to the side of my stomach, I felt like she was pressing right back. It was the strangest, yet sweetest thing I have ever felt. I just lay there pushing back and forth with her. I wanted Scott to feel it but I was afraid if I got up to go get him she wouldn't do it again when I lay back down. In a way, it made me feel like it was more real that there's a little baby girl with her own personality growing in there and not some alien creature. I feel like I'm getting mommy-baby bonding already and its a great feeling.
I dreamed about her a few nights ago. This was the first dream where I could actually see her and what she looked like. The nurses laid her on my chest and I just stared at her. She had fuzzy dark hair and big brown eyes. There were people standing around us who all said, "Oh, she looks just like you!" I guess we'll see just how correct mommy's dreams and intuitions are. When I picture her in my head, for some reason I see a redheaded baby with fair skin just like her Daddy. But that is certainly not what I saw in this dream. So, we'll see which is right in about 9 MORE WEEKS!
I had my first shower last Sunday given by my great friends, Kelly Knowles & Blair Bridges in Opelika for friends and family on that side of the state. Everything was wonderful and we got some really thoughtful gifts. This coming Sunday, my mother's friends will be hosting a shower in Prattville for my side of the family and friend in the Montgomery area. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone!! Thank you in advance to all of you who are planning on coming!
31 weeks down, 9 more to go... maybe?
