Despite all the praise I'm getting for finally updating the blog, I think I posted a day too soon... because this evening I have more big news to share.
THE BABY KICKED!
As I said yesterday I have felt some suspicious flutterings here and there, but this evening I felt three big kicks that actually moved my belly out. It was literally amazing. Rich left around 6pm for his night shift so I had to share the big news with him in a voicemail, but I was able to call Grandma Tam and share the excitement with her instead. After no 'outward' movement at all I couldn't believe how violent these kicks were... Mom said we must have a future swimmer in there doing flip turns. Wouldn't that be fun (though I think I'd settle for a soccer player too).
Wow. What a fantastic way to start the work week and to end the 17th week of pregnancy. Thank you all for sharing in my excitement.

Well Jason and I decided we hope it's an Irish Step Dancer.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah? Just wait 'til you hear what I'm gonna wish on you your baby...
ReplyDeleteI would be honored to have an Irish Step Dancing child. BUT I would be even more honored to have an Irish Step Dancing niece or nephew.
