Is that what I think it was?

While hanging out at home with Jeff and my parents on Saturday night (Saturday, October 24th), I’m pretty sure I felt our baby moving! I felt Mirabella at around 17 1/2 weeks, so at one day shy of 16 weeks this time, it seems feasible now that I can probably identify the feeling better. Tinges and tingles. Flutters and such. I thought I felt a little something the next day also, but nothing too prominent yesterday or today yet, that I’ve been aware of anyway. It’s early, so I’ve had to concentrate and be very in tune to the motion. Even so, I’m fairly sure the feelings have been our baby cakes on the move, twirling around in the limited space I’ve provided.

I’m so excited for the kicks and punches. Then to be able to feel it from the outside-and to see it from the outside-is the coolest sensation. I’m convinced Mirabella was trying to pound right through me at times, but I am sure longing for those feelings again. Let’s go, baby. It was you I felt, wasn’t it? Give your sister a run for her money. Beat me up, buttercup!
