That can't be comfortable

Well... I may have felt the baby move last night. I'm not quite sure though. I was laying in bed reading and I had my hand on my stomach and felt (from the inside) a bubbley type feeling from my uterus. Hmmm... maybe it was just gas.


Your baby's sensory development is exploding! Her brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. Some research suggests that she may be able to hear your voice now, so don't be shy about reading aloud, taking to her, or singing a happy tune if the mood strikes you. Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches, head to bottom. Her arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of her body now. Her kidneys continue to make urine and the hair on her scalp is sprouting. A waxy protective coating called the vernix caseosa is forming on her skin to prevent it from pickling in the amniotic fluid.

OOOOHHHH!! I bet you did :) It will only get better and better (until HE gives you a swift kick in the ribs).
