Baby Bump 5 months 3/25/2012

I've begun feeling mini kicks when it used to be just a fluttering feeling :)

I thought pregnancy brain was an excuse or myth before experiencing it myself.  Leaving my glasses at my co-worker's desk, dropping things without even realizing it, and losing my train of thought when speaking....I'm sure there is more to come.

As you can tell from the pictures, I haven't "popped" out much.  I think they have my due date wrong, I suspect they will move it back almost 2 weeks to match my original due date of August 21st.  I'm sure Jon would prefer this little one not arrive on his birthday August 20th.

I finally broke down and told my manager last week...why was I so nervous?  He was excited to hear the news and started telling me stories of his little girl.  My other manager was surprised and then proceeded to tell me "baby making was fun" as he reflected back to his memories of starting a family (talk about awkward).  Anyway, I plan to post monthly "belly" pictures to show my progress as Baby Swope grows.  Stay tuned...

I felt the little one move around today - what a cool feeling (aka quickening) :)
