Stories and anecdotes about my pregnancy, delivery and a scrapbook of sorts for the baby saved online for posterity. Just fun things and milestones for me to remember next time I decide to do this to myself.

Rolling over
We really needed a new mattress. Thankfully, for my body, we got one. I'm still getting some pain but it's not nearly as bad as before, and I can last longer on one side or the other. But that's just me. I'm not sure the DJ likes all the moving around at night. If I stand up and use the bathroom before I flip over, it seems to be fine. But last night I had a mid-night flip over that I did without standing up. Apparently he was in a rather bad position for me to move from my right side to my left. I lay down and curled up around my pillow and I could tell DJ was not quite right. I was going to try to cramp my hand under the belly to give him a soft nudge when I got all four appendages going at the same time. The boy rolled himself over. At least that's what it felt like. Poke, poke poke, wiggle, poke, wiggle, flop. It wasn't in four quadrants, the feet felt together and the hands felt together, but the speed of the poking leads me to think that all of the appendages were involved. It was rather startling in the middle of the night. He seemed to settle right down and go back to sleep though. Which is good. Because that means that I could go back to sleep as well. There were some early morning wiggles, but generally he slept the rest of the night. Yay!
