More Movement

Of course, I’ve reached that point where I can feel the baby moving around, kicking and punching me on a regular basis.

What is new is that in the last couple of days, she has started REALLY kicking me in strange places.  It makes me want to move away from the feeling, but the feeling is inside me, so there’s nothing I can do except squirm and hope she doesn’t do it again.

Last night Marti had his hand on my belly waiting to feel her again, but I was tensed up, so she was holding still.  I told him when I am relaxed, she moves more, but it’s hard to relax when you know someone’s going to kick you in the crotch.

What’s funny is sometimes he feels her gently squirming around in there more than he feels the big kicks.  It seems like it should be the other way around.

She is getting predictable, too!  I like that.  J

Every morning, she “wakes up” around the same time my alarm goes off and starts moving around more.  Of course, my bladder is full when I wake up, so sometimes when I feel her moving, I make a beeline for the bathroom before she gets a chance to kick me in the bladder.  Marti just laughs.
