I totally get what you mean-- I've been seeing him move for a few weeks and trying to get Tom to catch it but he never did.

We were just laying in bed last night, Tom playing his Nintendo DS and I was reading a book when he started kicking me hard enough the BOOK was moving.. I realized he kicked wherever I had the book resting on my tummy, so I whacked Tom to get his attention, pulled the book kinda tight over my tummy and sure enough, he got to see!!
Seems like if I say something .. like "come look!" he stops kicking. So it was perfect we were just laying there and I could just grab him and show him.


...and I know what you mean about the movement. This is my first but when he's moving I'm like "phew!" but when he stops... I'm like "Who takes a nap this long? Seriously?" and start bouncing in my seat-- I wanna know he's okay!!!

My little princess was doing flips today. This was the first big movements I have had other than flutters. You could feel my belly move up.

It made me happy!!!!

Thanks for all the congratulations, ladies! We're very happy with our little girl. She's so tiny and precious, everyone just loves her. She has her daddy wrapped around every single one of her little fingers.

I will say the pushing part was really bad, thanks to the pitocin. I was getting contractions right on top of each other. My OB was out of town that day so she didn't deliver me, another doctor from the same practice did. He asked me what size my doc predicted DD was going to be, and I told him high 7-pound range. He felt my belly and said he thought she was 8+. Funny how she turned out to be a six-pounder I was pretty close to getting a c-section after having to push for 90 minutes, but fortunately vacuum extraction works!

Aww! I'm still waiting to really feel something. I think I've felt a few flutters, but it's been 5 years since I've been pregnant and apparently, I've forgotten more than I thought I had.

Katie kicks constantly, UNLESS dh is around, then she won't move at all. The other two were the same way-dh thinks it is a conspiracy .

My ticker moved today-I'm officially in the 3rd trimester!

Hello girls. Well we bought the nursery furniture yesterday. Today I found the paint for the room as well. My parents are coming in 2 weeks to paint. Then we leave for Disney the next week. By the time we get back, the furniture should be in. This really makes it seem "real". So much fun!!!

Since we're talking about movement...I'm pretty sure I've felt the little one moving the last couple of nights. Just little flutters, but consistant and in the same area for a little while. I can't wait until DH can feel it and I can feel it move more!

So my friend from HS called me yesterday. I saw her a few months ago at the grocery store. She searched me out and now I'm going over her house on Tuesday to hang out with her and one of our other best HS friends. It's just nuts! I graduated in 98 and the first time I had seen either of the ladies was the first week I was preggers (before I knew it).

Sarah, you're about where I was when I first felt it too but wasn't SURE, if thats what I was feeling or not. Congrats! It's super cool, isn't it??


MinnieFan4Ever-- thats so exciting!!
My nursery gets painted next weekend. I have to work, but DH and my parents are going to get together and paint all the upstairs cielings, the nursery, the master bedroom and the hallway. I'm soo excited!!

I did paint letters that spell out his name, though!!

Good luck, please let us know how everything goes and post pics of your little man once he arrives!!! What are you going to name him????

I still have my fingers crossed that DH will find some time, which is hard with his schedule, to paint my DS's new room before the baby comes.

I have letters spelling out DS's name right over his changing table. I love them and he loves to point and spell his name!! I can't wait to get them for Emma too.

We are planning on naming him Finnegan Martin. My husband is Irish and decided that this time around, he wanted a very Irish name - he scoured the Internet looking for Irish names and we both really liked Finnegan or Finn for short.

I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Disney Ron]

I think Finn is adorable. So unique.

I absolutely love the name you chose. I tried soooo hard for Finn, but DH was dead set on Luca...which I love too! He really does look like a Luca!
