We have movement!

So for the past couple weeks (at least) I've been feeling what I thought was movement. I didn't want to say for sure, only because I've heard that gas bubbles feel a lot like the baby. At the ultrasound, the tech confirmed that anything I was feeling in my lower abdomen was all baby, so now I know when he's kicking.

Last night, after dinner, I was laying on the couch with my hand on my tummy...waiting and hoping for a little kick that I could feel from the outside. Was I surprised when I felt one heck of a kick (or punch) right where my hand was! It was only once, but I couldn't believe it - what a cool and strange feeling! Shawn has been keeping his hand on my stomach, hoping to feel G move, but he's being shy apparently. I feel so bad, but I know in a couple weeks he'll definitely be able to feel movement. I can't wait for him to feel our baby kicking him!

I'm 18 weeks and 5 days, only 149 days to go!!!

Told you that is the GREATEST feeling ever. Now just wait till you are sleeping in the middle of the night and baby wants to have a party in your tummy.
