Fiesty mama!

We are having one fiesty little girl.
Through all of my pre-existing fluff I felt her kicking and punching right below my navel this morning. From the outside!
She did it about 8 times. Tim was asleep and missed all the fun.

I'm for sure I felt the baby move this afternoon! Tim was rubbing my stomach, and I thought I felt something. Of course when he stopped, the feeling was gone. He rubbed again, and then all of a sudden I felt it! In my lower stomach I felt the most wonderful sensation. One that can only make you smile. It felt like a thick bubble bursting in the middle of my stomach. I also compared it to the way it would feel if someone put paint on a paintbrush then splattered it on you purposely, only the paint lands in one general area. I know none of that makes sense. Wouldn't make sense to me either if not for the fact that it happened to me.
My headache is finally gone.
It's Friday.
My baby moves.
Only 12 more days to the sonogram.
I'm feeling good.

Can-Can Dancer

Yesterday I thought I felt the baby move. I'm still not sure if that's what I was feeling or not because it didn't feel the way that other women describe the early movements. I've heard early movement feels like flutters, butterflies, or bubbles. I was lying down on the couch and all of a sudden I felt something that felt like KICKS. 6-8 light pokes . Rapid, light pokes. I pictured the baby doing the can-can and kicking me with both feet one at a time. I guess there really is no telling right now what that was that I felt. Time will tell.

Oh yeah. I've landed in Headache City, and have been here for two straight days. Please don't offer me any Tylenol.
