19 weeks

The baby started kicking today! I have been anxious to feel the flutters I've read about since week 16, and today while lying down (with a terrible headache), the little one decided to full on kick me! I was sort of in denial at first, trying to convince myself it was something else, but he/she's been wiggling around all evening. I thought maybe Korey could feel it if he pressed down on my belly but no luck. Maybe in a couple weeks... I called my doctor's office earlier to ask about the constant headaches I've been having. I've had one everyday for the last week and half, and nothing makes them go away. Today was miserable so I finally called and she told me I could try Excedrin Tension Headache. It helped, which was a relief. The nurse told me to call back in a couple of days if they persisted so I could come in for an appointment to make sure all is well. We have our ultrasound on Friday. We can't wait to have some new pictures to share. I have to admit I've been anxious to find out boy/girl but Korey is staying strong on the "surprise" idea. We'll see if either of us cave. : )

Talk that guy into finding out!

I had terrible headaches with Henry. My doc told me to take some Tylenol with caffeine (soda). It is less caffeine than in Excedrin. You might try it. But, I ended up getting a prescription for real emergencies.
