sixteen weeks!

Almost 17! Pretty exciting. I felt my first movement a few days ago; it felt like a little gas bubble in the wrong place. He/she/it kicked me then scraped across my abdomen a little. It was definately a movement! Very exciting. I'm going in today to get some bloodwork done to determine whether the kid has any disorders. By the time I come back from AT, on the 22nd, I should have the results of those back and my "official" ultrasound. (That's on the 24th). So before I go to New Hampshire, I should know much more than I do now about the newest member of the family. Oh, another wierd thing, according to the doctor's scale, I haven't gained any weight since I've been pregnant, and I'm almost to my 5th month! But they don't seem too concerned. I'll probably drop some more weight during my 2 weeks of training because apparantly for breakfast and dinner they are having catered meals, which translates into "unidentifiable meat-based foods", so I won't get to eat anything until the nightly MRE which, thankfully, come in vegetarian types. Luckily they are about 3,000 calories if everything inside is eaten, and I can bring my own food. I'm getting leave on the 14th and the 15th so I can restock then. So anyway, I'd better get dressed and begin my day. Maybe I'll go see a movie.
