26 weeks already?
By Iamloved » Posted Jan. 19, 2014 2:54am - 450 views - 2 comments

I can't believe how fast time has gone, 6 months already. I remember being 5 weeks and thinking 12 weeks was so far away. We can't wait to meet our little man, he's very quiet in there I wonder what he's upto? He only kicks first thing in the morning and late at night, and even then it's only for a few seconds. It may be partly due to the fact I have an anterior placenta, thankfully it's high anterior so no need for a planned c-section. DD is thrilled about her new baby brother and is constantly kissing and hugging my bump. I have a feeling this little man is going to be showered with huggles and kisses from big sis when he's born. My latest craving has been ice cold coca cola, I have about two cans a day which i definitely need to work on cutting down on. It's so weird because as soon as I eat breakfast it's not tea that I want to wash it down with, I crave a ice cold coke, then I'll have my tea after. I wonder if this is a typical boy craving?

I know what you mean about craving a really big cold Coke. I also crave a really cold can of Dr. Pepper. Every month I give up something naughty so I haven't had any sodas in several weeks, and I'm dying for one! I've already decided that I want to bring a cooler full of Dr. Peppers and Fruity Pebbles to the birthing center with me. I can't wait.

Describing your 'quiet' bub's movements is exactly how I've felt about my little one! But I too have a high anterior placenta and that knowledge has kept me from getting too worried.
I have read about so many others feeling all this movement from 18wk's onward and felt there was no comparison. But being 2 weeks ahead of you, I'm tipping you will finally start to feel a lot more in the next few weeks. Just last week (27-28) I finally have felt strong frequent movement and seen plenty of belly wobbles too! I'm having a boy and icy drinks top my list of cravings. Not for cola, but anything with ice in it is bliss!
Glad time is flying for you. April is fast approaching!!
