Baby kicks

So this past weekend, our little pumpkin has really wanted us to know he/she is in there. I am really starting to feel kicks and movements all day long. I first felt something a few weeks ago but not like this. At first, I was a little worried because I didn't know why the kicks were so faint. I wasn't sure if there was a reason why Harris couldn't feel the kicks as well from the outside. So I asked my Doctor and she basically said that since my placenta is on the top, its like our tiny little baby is kicking through a pillow and that the kicks are not as evident on mothers with the placenta on top. Well only a day after that appointment, I guess baby Vuadens decided to prove the Doctor wrong and show that placenta or not they are going to show Mommy and Daddy that they are there and are ready to be known. It all started with one night when I was laying in bed watching TV and felt little kicks one after another. So I called for Harris and told him to feel my stomach. Our little one went nuts! One after another, we felt them go.... This was the first time Harris had felt it more than once and was so excited. I teared up because every time I see how exicted he gets when it comes to this baby, it touches my heart to know that I am giving him a baby of his own. I thank God every day for this blessing because no one deserves an opportunity to be a father like Harris and I never thought having his baby would make him so happy but he is already ready for #2.
