Due date...kinda

The pregnancy center gave me a due date of June 29, which put me at 16 weeks and 2 days on Wednesday, January 14th. After talking to my midwife, she said that was probably an accurate medical date considering that all of my babies were fairly small at birth and were born 6-14 days earlier than predicted due dates. So, in reality the baby should be arriving closer to the middle of June.
It was really neat to see my sweet baby. I needed a good preggie, baby boost and seeing that tiny little life moving all over the place definitely melted my heart. My bladder was so full that it hurt and the whole time we were watching, baby was doing serious aerobics using my bladder as a trampoline. Rich said, "Oh, that's what you mean when you say that the baby is dancing on your bladder? I get it now."
It was weird though, because I almost feel like I cheated. Not sure why. I have grown accustomed to just waiting for the entire pregnancy to meet baby in person. I felt like I had met my baby. Holy hormones, batman!
