Felt baby kick for 1st time

Post by bubblymichelle »

Hi Everyone<br><br>Just to let you know I actually felt the baby kick for the 1st time. I have been having quite alot of movement but its been like popping and flutters. Well yesterday I rubbed my tummy and I actually felt the kick with my hand I was quite surprised. I said to DH to put his hand on my belly which he did and he felt it too, he couldn't believe it he was amazed. He said his heart was racing because it was something he didn't expect. I just wanted to share this with you all.<br>Hope everyone is doing ok.<br>Love<br>Shell.<br>21wks 6d pg<br>xx

Hi Michelle - you have brought a little tear to my eye - that's so wonderful - can't wait to be there. When did the first flutters start? I'm only 14 weeks so quite a way to go!!<br><br>Very kind of your baby to kick again,so that your dh could feel it too - its lovely when the men can be actually physically involved in things isnt it.<br><br>Lots of love - take care of your little striker!!<br><br>Jo.XXXXX
