-17 weeks

Last Thursday my counts had gone up to 609! What a shock. Today they were 181. This is great for a couple of reasons:

1. I don't have to go on steroids
2. I was able to get my shot today
3. We stayed at 3.5 mcg
4. We'll be able to see if 3.5 mcg is the correct dosage, without steroid interference.

Baby J is doing all kinds of kicking lately. Today it feels like he's moved a little from his breech position and is kicking below my belly button. I'm hoping this means Jimmy will feel them soon! Baby seems to have a schedule. I'll feel a little kicking in the mid-morning, early afternoon, then later in the evening. One day last week I felt it kicking and pressed my hand against the outside. It kicked against my hand a few times (could only feel from the inside) and I started laughing. I think I scared the baby, because it totally stopped moving for a few minutes!

I finished my first sleepsack and matching hat! It's so cute. I can't wait to make some more, but they'll have to take a back seat to my Secret Stork present for my KTT Mama Friend!
