Saturday brought about some inner fear, that I feel better about now, but was quietly freaking out about then. I fell twice on Saturday and was petrified I'd done something to my little girl. First I was cleaning the bathroom and slipped off a stool trying to windex mirrors. When I slipped the stool came out from underneath me and I banged my stomach on the sink ledge. It sent a sharp pain near my belly button. I immediately sat down, prayed and rested for a a few minutes. Then Saturday night Zeus was outside doing his business and Bradley runs in and grabs his gun. Bradley says, Zeus is going wild outside growling and barking. So I get up and run to the window to look and trip on my area rug. I fell on my side. So then I'm freaking out again. What the heck Lord?!!! Why have I fallen twice today? That whole night I was on edge thinking I've injured this baby for sure. I kept reminding myself what my brother said, which is that my uterus is about 2 inches thick and it takes a heck of a lot to hurt a baby inside the womb. I kept praying too :) Anyway, Sunday she was active as normal and has been since, so I really think everything is fine. It just scared me big time. Maybe God was just trying to get my attention so that I'll be extra careful the rest of the time.
On a lighter note, actually "lighter" is an understatement b/c I'm getting ready to talk about how big I am! On Jan. 10th my baby belly measured 38 1/2 inches. On Jan. 27th it was 40 inches. I'm going to try and measure each week. Week of Feb. 4th- 40 1/2 inch.

Wow - that is super scary! I'm glad that everything is okay and that Emma Grace is still doing gymnastics!! Be careful!! Love ya - Steph :)
Pregnancy clumsiness is so totally odd--don't you think? I mean I have never spent so much time bumping into things, dropping things, tripping over myself, etc...Can you imagine if you are already a naturally clumsy person? I am glad to hear everything seems to be fine--I am sure it is...I know everytime I do something a bit odd I get worried...and then he kicks me right in the ribs and I know everything is fine--LOL. take care, can't wait for our babies to meet!
