Just Another Day... But it's a Good One

*In case anyone actually reads this, sorry ahead of time but here is a fair warning: There is quite a bit of TMI throughout my journals.*
Since I had been feeling strong movement and a few light kicks prior to the 18 week ultrasound, I wasn't surprised to get a good hard kick that night. What was nice though was to feel it from the outside! :) My hubby still hasn't felt her yet but I get kicked, punched, headbutted, and nudged about 90 - 120 times per day (no joke lol)
We are now at 22 weeks and 2 days and I am both exhausted and thrilled for the majority of every single day. I'm starting a kick counter already because of my little ninja and her well placed jabs to my belly every time my hand is on it. I am also doing everything I can from checklists to reading every book and website that I can find to make sure she is well prepared for because I am already getting nervous that maybe I'm not ready to be a mom even though it's all I've wanted for so long now.
I've finally put on weight too! I've gained a whole 10 lbs in 22 weeks lol. Progress is progress though. If I put on 1 lb per week from here on, we will be at about 28 lbs total which would be a great end weight for pregnancy. :) I swear I have to eat almost all day every day to gain anything though. What's worse is if I eat really really healthy, I gain ridiculous amounts of weight way too fast (4 lbs in 5-6 days)... when I eat sugar twice a day either on my cereal or by just munching candy, I either lose weight or gain a steady healthy amount lol. Hopefully my metabolism stays like this after Lyla is born.
