So today I was sitting in a waiting chair at the DMV and had my purse on my lap...right on the "bump." I guess the baby didn't like the weight of my purse pressing down on it because I felt four very distinct "taps." It was very light and slightly ticklish. Sort of like if you just brush the point of your finger very lightly on your arm in the crease where the elbow bends. (Or another area with delicate skin.)
It was unlike anything else I have felt before and was definitely not food digesting or gas or anything. A few hours later I felt one more "tap" while I was sitting in front of the computer. I even pressed around down on my belly, but couldn't get any more taps. (I was probably irritating the little one by this point.)
Anyways, I am very excited. To go along with this news I finally have some bump pics. They were taken at weeks 8, 12 and 16. At the bottom I'm going to put one with a little belly exposed and tighter clothes to give you an idea of what I look like right now. (Almost 17 weeks.)
6 Weeks....
AKA My normal "size."
12 Weeks....
A little bloat perhaps?
16 Weeks....
Either I've been living on pizza on hamburgers for the last four months or there is a baby in there.
And one with a tight skirt and a little belly showing. (17 weeks) Hello Baby!

So exciting!! I don't think 17 weeks is too early to feel the baby - I think that's a pretty typical time to start feeling flutters. Very cool! And your bump is adorable. :)
I love that you wore the same outfit for all of them - making the changes easier to see. Wish I had thought to do that... And, you are so lanky that you'll be one of those impossibly elegant pregnant women. You look fab!
You're so tiny! How exciting to feel that flutter...
You look so so cute!!!
