Talk about a whirlwind weekend for pregnancy. Lets start with Friday. Friday was the best day I have had in a long time. At approximately 7:30, while watching shark tank (love that show), I felt the baby move. It was just the smallest flutter, but I knew that it was the baby. I tried to remain very calm because I knew if my heart was beating too fast, I would miss any more baby movements. At first, I wasn't going to tell Bill because I thought he wouldn't believe me. However, after feeling it a few more times, I thought, I don't want him to miss out on this. So, I told him. His response, "You have been reading to many pregnancy books." (eye roll here). After I insisted that no, it is the baby I promise, he believed me and I think got a little jealous. I feel bad for him. I hope he gets to feel the baby soon.
Saturday and Sunday, we had a great day of picking up cribs, organizing, and de-junkifying (more on that later). Around 7:30 Sunday night, right before Bill and I were leaving to pick up dinner, I passed out. Just when I thought this pregnancy thing couldn't be any easier on me, Bill's biggest fear came true. I am not really sure how it happened. All I know is that I went into the kitchen to get a drink of water before putting on my shoes to leave the house. Shortly after I took a big gulp of water, I got a sharp pain in my upper abdomen and became really dizzy really fast. I told Bill that I needed to lie down (he was in the bathroom not the kitchen), and before I made it to the bed or Bill made it to help me, I just passed out in the bedroom floor. Bill said I hit my head pretty hard on the end of the bed, but I didn't have a headache or bruise, so I guess we know that I am, in fact, a hard head. Once I came to, I was fine. Bill on the other hand was not. I am sure he would put me in a bubble for the rest of this pregnancy if he could. Instead, he will be watching my sugar intake and water consumption like a hawk. No more Kripsy Kreme donuts for me. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Thanks guys. I am completely fine. I actually felt really good both before and after, so it was pretty non-tramatic for me. However, Bill has quite a different story.
