A Busy Fish

Sutton is a busy fish! He RARELY sleeps. I read an article the other day that said by 25 weeks "babies have developed a sleep schedule. They have regular active and inactive periods." If that is the case it should be interesting when he arrives, as he is always up during naptime and while I'm sleeping. :) His movements are getting more and more evident. His new trick is "stretching." Particularly his feet and legs. That has been a joy since he has been breach pretty much the entire time. (15 weeks to flip buddy!) J has been able to feel him a lot more lately. That has been especially fun for me. J will also put his ear to my tummy and listen to him before we go to bed. So cool for him to hear!!! All the swimming Sutton has been doing lately has done a number to my sleep schedule, or lack there of. Many many sleepless nights, just getting me ready to be up all night I'm sure. As crazy as the moving has been, it's also the most incredible thing in the whole world. There was a time not too long ago that I thought I might not be one of lucky ones who gets to experience that feeling. I try to remember that when he's "stretching." Enjoying every, flutter, twitch, jump, kick, punch, roll, squirm and stretch! :)
