18 Weeks-Little kicks

18 weeks down, and a tiny little bump is starting to show!! I'm happy to report that the days of morning/all-day-long sickness are (hopefully) OVER!!!!  Can I get a wahoo? =) I am feeling so much better lately. I'm starting to feel like myself again, just with a weird case of PMS.
I am now feeling the baby move a lot! In the beginning I wasn't sure if it was the baby or gas, so I just assumed that it was gas. (I didn't want to be one of those girls.) The first time that I felt that baby move, and was pretty sure it was actually the baby, I was sitting in front of my computer. David was sitting next to me at his computer (yes, we have his/her computers), and I kinda started freaking out. I froze with my hands out in the air and loudly whispered, "I think the baby's moving. I THINK THE BABIES MOVING!!!" Trying to decipher the difference between gas bubbles and the little flickering I was feeling in my belly, I realized that gas bubbles usually don't get rolling in that particular spot. This was so weird. David looked at me like I was kind of crazy and said, "It's probably just gas." Yeah right, dude! That was all baby! I feel the baby move every day now. Mostly in the evenings or when I'm sitting in my car.
I'm feeling like my pregnancy has just began. Maybe that's because I've just started being able to enjoy it. I have a small bump now that's big enough for people that know that I'm pregnant to be able to see. I'm feeling so much better, and I'm feeling little kicks!! I can't believe that in just 2 weeks I will be half way!! I really hope (at this point at least) that the second half goes slower than the first half. (We'll see what I'm saying by then end of July/beginning of August!)
We will also find out the sex in 2 weeks. Lately, I've been wondering if this baby is a boy. I seem to be carrying very low. We've been going through lists of names, and have a few girl names picked out that we like. We are having a really hard time with the boy names. There are a lot of names that I like, but not too many that I love. I don't think there are too many that David likes, let alone loves! I guess we will just have to wait and see!! Check back in about 2 more weeks to find out what sex our baby is!!!! =)
