According to BabyCenter:

At this point, you may find your belly becoming a hand magnet. It's perfectly okay to tell folks who touch your tummy that you'd rather they didn't. And if people are telling you that you look smaller or bigger than you should at this point, remember that each woman grows — and shows — at her own rate. What's important is that you see your practitioner for regular visits so she can make sure your baby's growth is on track.
You may start to notice stretch marks on your abdomen as it expands to accommodate your growing baby. At least half of all pregnant women will develop stretch marks by the time they give birth. These small streaks of differently textured skin can range from pink to dark brown (depending on your skin color). Although they most commonly appear on your tummy, stretch marks may also show up on your buttocks, thighs, hips, and breasts. There's no proof that lotion helps prevent stretch marks, but keeping your skin moisturized may help with any itching.

I'm feeling pretty good, beside the aches under my breast where my ribs and sternum are. Kelly and I went to a wedding last night and by the time we got home, my feet looked like marshmallows. It's the first swelling I have had with this pregnancy. I hope that I don't swell too much more through out this pregnancy.
Kelly keeps trying to feel baby move and I honestly think Baby Riesberg doesn't like it's daddy. :( Every-time Kelly goes to put his hand on my belly the baby stops moving or Kelly can't feel it kick. I know eventually he will be able to feel Baby Riesberg, but I'm a very impatient person and I want him to feel what I feel. It's an amazing feeling.
Ahh poor Kelly, hope he isn't taking it toooo personally, his time will come to feel the baby soon!
