How is Olya doing?  Does she have her energy back and over morning sickness?

I am finally in the last trimester and its wild how fast the tummy grows.  Dima can finally feel the kicking which is fun.

Hope you two are doing well.

Hi Amerikanka,

Yes, Olya seems to be past the sickness phase and she seems to feel pretty good now. She got her 2nd ultrasound today and the exam came out fine.

For the first few months, she kept asking if she looked any 'bigger' yet - torn between wanting to know the baby is growing and not wanting to see her figure affected. Just this past week, she has finally started to add some weight (1.5 pounds) and her clothes are fitting a bit tighter.

Yes, I'll bet that Dima (and you too) are kind of impressed with all the movement that can be felt. How about you? Is the movement becoming more pronounced for you yet? Has he/she had any hiccups you could feel?

I've only had one ultrasound.  Well, I did have a mini one in the office when the confirmed the pregnancy on our first visit.  Then a real one at the hospital.  If Olya were in Ukraine, she could probably have one at each visit to the Dr.  We saw the baby hiccup during the ultra sound, but I can't feel that--or I just don't know what it feels like.
woops. gotta run.
