kicks

No matter how many times you have a baby, it's always miraculous when you first begin to really feel her moving around.

I started feeling some flutters and wiggles several weeks back, at about 16 weeks, but in the past three days, the kicks are a lot ...thumpier, and they are much higher up on my belly, rather than confined to the lower half.

I think Jon and the kids could feel this, if I could get their hands on my belly at the right moment. So far, though, I'm the only one who has felt her doing her flips and kicks.
