Things That Surprised Me During Pregnancy........

*How comfortable maternity pants are even though they give me a diaper-butt look
*How good ice cream sounds at any time of the day
*Why going to the bathroom can't just wait until the morning
*That a baby rolling around in your belly actually is only described by saying "it feels like a baby is rolling inside your belly"
*How often one person can rub their belly without noticing! (Me of course, and Jimmy notices!)
*The real-ness and love for our baby that set in after the first ultrasound
*How quickly your belly button can flatten..it hasn't popped yet
*How fast the belly can grow
*The feeling I got when we heard the heartbeat...BEST EVER
*How much I actually hated food in the first trimester..I LOVE food
*How many times a person can actually throw up
