I've been wondering for a couple of weeks now whether every little gurgle or bubble I felt was the baby moving. Yesterday, when I was lying on the couch reading, I felt something very different. I've never been a mommy before, so I'm no expert, but if baby movement feels something like a lizard doing The Worm* through your lower abdomen, then we definitely have a little mover in there! Yay!!
*There. I made a tribute to the late Michael Jackson. Happy?
Isn't that so cool?! A lizard? I always thought it was a fish!!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteTry something for me....take a bath and move the water to splash around your belly. This use to really make my kids move and they were born loving the bath. I want to see if this works for you or if my kids were just plain weird! That is a possibility!
I think I once likened it to having a guinea pig in there...but that was later on. When it was early on, it felt to me like I had a muscle twitch, but deep in my stomach. :-D
ReplyDeleteExciting times...but if you have a wiggle worm like Lilah, I'll warn you that the BABY'S movement could actually wear you out! I used to just get SO tired
Yay, movement! And yes, you've made your mother very proud with the tribute to Michael Jackson!
ReplyDeleteThat little worm will turn into a jack rabbit before long!!!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful?
