Putting it all together, seeing it on screen, hearing the heartbeat...it makes feeling it even more surreal I think. I wasn't even waiting around to feel anything, it wasn't even crossing my mind really. I knew around week 17...week 18 I would start feeling little things here n there. I was laying in bed...on my RIGHT side... awaiting the sandman and his big 50lb bag of sand to pour into my eyes when all of a sudden I felt a little flutter in my lower belly area. I said to myself "hmm, what?" I put my hand on top and waited a min. Then I felt another little flutter. It felt like an air bubble. A very tiny and dainty air bubble. WHOA! It's moving...that means it's alive! I texted Barry, who was at the gym doing his manly gym manly things, and let him know the offspring had just moved.
The next day, same time I tried to feel around for it. As if the night before we agreed to meet again tomorrow same time, same place for a good ol kick in the stomach. Little one left me high and dry, which is fine...can't expect them to come to you whenever you feel like it, but the next night...he felt like making contact again! Barry got to feel it too this time. I guess he was maybe expecting a big punch in the hands, but it was just a dainty little "boop". Oh also, don't youtube any videos of babies moving in the womb, it's pretty creepy. Thanks Steen. I mean unless you're into alien looking beings growing inside your body and moving around like it's a club zone. Some people find every part of pregnancy beautiful...I have yet to uncover the beauty I suppose ;)
