OK, so I've been holding out on something else, too. I didn't want to blog about it until I was sure, and I wasn't sure because it was so early, but now I'm pretty certain. I am feeling the baby move!! I don't feel it all the time, not even every day, but I am occasionally feeling the little tiny kicks. The first time was Dec. 17 (exactly 15 weeks), at an annual cookie exchange. I was sitting at the dining table talking to my friend Ann and I felt what seemed to be a little bubble. It was there one second, then then gone. I didn't react, or say anything, but I was pretty sure then that it was our little one. I had been trying to get the baby to make itself known to me for a while (which basically consists of belly rubbing and pep talks on the couch), so it was great! It almost felt like gas, but it was somehow less fluid. It was like a firm bubble. I don't know how to describe it!! But it was awesome!! And then, the next day, as I took my tax final, I felt the baby move twice! And I have been feeling little movements periodically since then. Just this morning, I was lying in bed with DH and family cat, cuddling, and the little one wanted to make me aware that (s)he was awake too. I can't wait until the kicks become more regular, and a bit stronger. (I might regret that wish when I'm trying to sleep in May and baby's showing off its mad soccer skills).
Anyway! Wanted to share. And document. :)
