The baby is getting bigger!!

This week was a very strange week in many ways - I can now feel the baby's actual body moving and pushing against my uterus...it is SO weird and awesome! Over the weekend, I was lying in bed and had this really painful cramp in my abdomen...I instinctively went to hold my stomach and what did I feel but the baby's body pushing against my uterus - it was really hard...very strange. As soon as the baby moved the cramp went away. Last night my friend Laura got to feel the baby too...that was pretty cool to share with a girlfriend.
I am traveling to VA again this weekend - I can see why driving long distances isn't recommended - my back and stomach hurt a lot by the time I arrive...but I make sure to stop around every two hours to stretch. Luckily I won't have to do this much longer!
This week I gained another pound. Here is my most recent picture:

23 Weeks: Weight - 147 lbs., Waist - 36, Hips 40.5, Bust 36.5
