Today I woke up and looked down on my tummy as I do every morning to say good morning to my little peanuts and I noticed something funny....my belly button sticking out!!! Totally freaked me out but I kinda pushed it back in...LOL...and then proceeded to take out my belly ring! Oh no...no more belly ring...I NOW HAVE OFFICIALLY HIT MOTHERHOOD!
I called my mom immediately, and said, "mom....MY BELLY BUTTON IS POPPED OUT"...and she just laughed and said, "yup, that's what happens, hunny!"
All day I kept looking at my tummy and even now, it is stretched and as flat as it can be and soon will be all the way out, all the time! Lovely! Yuck, is really what I think.
Not to mention, all the scars from my previous surgeries are now stretching to capacity also...I hope they told tight and don't pop open, because sometimes I feel like the skin on my tummy could literally POP open these days! It's so weird, but I am guessing it's because it's stretching so much so quickly!
Also, today, Tim and I were sitting on the couch and felt Madelynn (Baby A) most likely (since it was so low) kick twice. As soon as I felt it I grabbed his hand and put it on my lower belly and sure enough, another big kick! It's getting tight in there quick!!
When my mom stopped over this evening on her neighborhood walk, I showed her my belly button and she said, "geeze, you look 6-7 months pregnant!" (And she said my tummy still looks cute even with a semi-popped out belly button!)
I guess it's all because I have been eating SO MUCH lately, the peanuts are really gaining weight and growing, along with my tummy on the outside! Makes me smile from ear to ear but it still so freaky!!
Can't wait until tomorrow for my OB appointment to see how much weight I have officially gained and to see how big the babies are! I hope we get some good pictures this time!!
So exciting that you felt them kick, how cool!! I can't wait for that!
