Kickboxer In Training

Man my little one likes to kick :) It's so amazing every time I feel it. I can't wait til the kicks get stronger. Well, as long as he stays away from my cervix. Those are none too comfortable. This is another reason I am convinced it is a boy cuz a girl would know never to kick mommy there. Lol. I feel it a lot more than I expected to already. I'll just be sittin there and kick, kick, kick. I love it! I've even felt it twice now on the outside. I definitely didn't expect to feel that this early but I did start feeling the kicks in general pretty early. I don't think the nurse practitioner believed that I was feeling it already but it isn't her body now is it? Not to mention they always say, every pregnancy is different. I think it's because I am just so in tune with my body. 3 years of TTC will do that to you I guess. She didn't really seem to believe that I knew when I was ovulating either. I think we all know I was right on that one. I guess I'm just put off by the fact that they all talk to me like I don't know squat about pregnancy. I know I don't know everything, but I definitely read as much as I can so I am at least aware of what is going to be going on with my body. I know there are plenty of girls who get knocked up and don't know anything and don't bother to try to educate themselves, but it took me this long to get here and I think I read most of this stuff before I even got pregnant. I'm just going more in depth now. Ugh, oh well.

Everything else is going quite well. John is getting settled into his new unit. They made him Squad Leader which is what he's wanted for a bit. Only bad thing so far is he's due to deploy to Afghanistan in November. Our baby will only be 4 months old and he'll miss a year of our baby's life from that point on :( I just wish he didn't have to go. Especially since they said he wasn't going to be going for a while. Ugh. This is all stupid Obama's fault.
