sweet spot 23.5 weeks...

In the last week or so when people have asked how I am feeling my response has been something close to this: "I'm feeling really good. I think I'm in a real sweet spot of the pregnancy."

Then, today in a Marketing meeting, at work, I heard the term "sweet spot" thrown around and wondered
1. What actually is the sweet spot on a baseball bat, a tennis racket...or as I have learned, a golf club?
2. Am I conjuring up a sports metaphor for how I am feeling due to the fact that we have a little athlete inside?
3. (and this cant really be answered, nor do I really want to) Has my brain absorbed "Marketing-speak" to a point of using it in my every day life (and when did "sweet spot" become part of that jargon? I missed that memo)

These are part of definitions I found on various sights referring to the "sweet spot"
.."the sweet spot is the area of the string bed that produces the best combination of feel and power"
..."the location which produces maximum batted ball speed"
...."the location where maximum energy is transferred to the ball "


Since I only went to tennis camp for one summer (Can you picture that? Little Lizzie in her soccer shorts only wanting to play "three flies up" and seeing who could just hit the ball the furthest) and my baseball years were quite some time ago (although the batting cages will forever be a favorite of mine) AND I am not a golfer (yet)- I guess when I use the term "sweet spot" I am being mostly literal and only somewhat metaphorical.
I am, indeed, in a sweet spot. I feel good. I feel grateful and lucky and in awe of all that is happening. I feel blessed for our health and to have a loving and wonderful husband in all of this. I'm feeling a real connection with the baby. I feel alive. I feel honored. I feel like a miracle is actually taking place. It just feels sweet. It does, in a way, feel like part of those definitions (minus the hitting implements, of course) -the best combination of feel and power (ful).
