And the earth moved … or something like that
People have been asking over the past few weeks about the baby moving, and all I could say was that I wasn’t really sure; that I’d felt the occasional little twinge, but for all I knew it was just a gas bubble ;) Well, let me tell you, once it actually starts really moving, you couldn’t mistake it for anything else. It would be very hard to describe, but believe me, you’d know when you felt it!
And now that it is moving, it just won’t stop. Hour upon hour it is moving around, and kicking and kicking. (kicking way down low, below my belly a most disconcerting sensation!) And seemingly, mommy wanting to take a nap or go to bed at night is the cue to really get going. Still three months to go — I sure hope a person gets used to pounding from inside, because so far, its making me a little bit crazy! 😉
I was so moved by this blog that I haven’t been able to formulate a good comment yet. When I first started feeling movement when I was pregnant it was the most amazing thing. I treasured every single day. Now you know I tend to be farily pragmatic, but I tell ya, being pregnant and feeling the baby move around and knowing I’m carrying *life*. Wow, that was an amazing experience for me. 🙂 The closest I’ve ever come to feeling like miracles actually do happen. *hugs*
