Week 22 - the baby kicked!

Well, I suppose the baby has been kicking all along, just that I couldn't really feel it up to now.

It happened 2 days ago, when I woke up at 4.30am to go to the bathroom. When I got back to bed, it took me a while before I fell asleep. I felt it then, twice. It didn't feel like any of those things that people described online, not really butterflies fluttering etc, but more like a punch or a kick from inside my womb.

I placed my hand on my tummy and then I felt it, again. My hand moved together with my tummy and I smiled. I have been waiting for this day. I realised that I don't feel it very often, I can only feel it when I am lying in bed at night, or have been in the same position for a while (e.g. sitting on the bus).

It's awesome to feel the baby move. More awesome that we will be finding out the gender of the little one this coming Saturday!
