Well, I felt the baby Thursday for the first time. I'd love to say that it was amazing and magical and that it was full of gentle flutters and little swishes...but to be truthful, it felt like popcorn popping inside me, and I was pretty confused at first! My first reaction was (of course) to gently push back on the spot where I felt the popping and after I did, it responded and "popped" back, so that was pretty fun. Since then, I've been feeling the baby more and more. Last night I attempted (about 10 times) to get Luke to feel it as well, but the baby always stopped right when I'd get Luke's hand on my belly. Silly baby. It was actually really funny, because it was like it knew when Luke was there and it got all still. Then, when he gave up and pulled his hand away, "pop!" Hopefully the baby will be kicking and moving a little stronger soon, and it will be really easy for Luke and others to feel. All in all, it's amazing how the activity just keeps on growing and changing. I'm so excited to meet this little kicker!
