25 weeks!

15 weeks to go...it's the final countdown (almost).

I can't really top yesterday's post - so I won't try.

I was reading the weekly "What to Expect When You're Expecting" segment for this week and it says that my baby can see! It then encourages parents to mess with their child by shining a flashlight into your uterus and your baby will kick. I can't figure out if I think that's an awesome idea or an awful one. I also can't figure out if I want Adin to see what's really surrounding him - maybe that will be the first thing I do to scar him for life.

I was talking with a woman at work a bit over a week ago and she was asking if he's kicking and rolling. At that point I didn't really know the difference...I do now! Adin has been rolling up a storm the last few days. He's given up on kicking completely and is just rolling around. My illogical anxious self is wondering if he'll wrap the umbilical cord around his neck. Then my logical calm self steps in and reminds me that with parents as smart as us we wouldn't have a child who does something that dumb. I'll have to re-read this sentence the first time Adin pees in my face or eats dog food.

I have been trying to figure out exactly when I can call myself "6 months along". I know some people start saying it around 24 weeks (because 24 divided by 4 = 6). However, a pregnancy is really 10 months (because 40 divided by 4 = 10)...so I kind of want to wait until I'm 12 weeks from my due date to say I'm 6 months. Is that weird?! And P.S. I wish I could send this to my high school math teacher who said, in front of the whole class, that I wouldn't get to college because I was so bad at math. Well, lady, not only did I make it through college (and fail my math entrance exam thanks to your bad teaching), but I went to graduate school and post-graduate school as well. So there! (huge tongue out!) For the record, her reasoning for my bad grades that she gave my parents was that I snacked too much in class.
