Baby's movements also seem to be getting stronger... I'm not sure if my placenta (which was anterior) has shifted or if I can now feel the baby through the placenta better. It used to be that I only felt movements down low or off to the left. Last night, I felt and saw them over on the right; and I have felt them up high (a few centimeters above my belly button) a few times.
A new symptom that kicked in last week is constipation - possibly because of being on retreat from July 28 through August 2 and the diet changes that happened in conjunction with that; possibly just because of pregnancy. I almost never have trouble with that basic function, so I have a newfound compassion for those that do - it can be so uncomfortable! :-/
This was my pre-retreat belly picture. ;-) I was 23w3d.
My next appointment is 2 weeks from yesterday (on Monday, August 18) - and after that, appointments will be every 2 weeks until I'm 36 weeks along! :)
