5 Month Checkup… and more kicking

Apparently Kathy can’t have caffeine before the appointment. When trying to measure the baby’s pulse, it was once again doing cartwheels and the croc death roll. Everything was fine. Kathy was up 4lbs from the last appointment to 125lbs now. She’s up about 7lbs overall. She should start putting on a pound a week now… for 20 weeks
The baby is about the length of a banana now. It is about 6.5″ now and 10oz. It is using that extra 3-4oz from last month to kick its mom whenever and wherever it can… and occasionally its dad. It kicked me in the hand before, but I got a real thud yesterday. It was solid. Kathy is now feeling the kicking without putting her hand on her belly. I’m sure that the baby will calm down any time now…
