This morning, while lying in bed savoring the last few minutes before I HAD to get up to get ready for VBS, I started feeling the baby kicking. I think I’ve been feeling it on and off, but was never quite sure. But I’m pretty sure this was the real thing. I felt about 3 or 4 kicks before I decided to use the BabyBump app on my iPhone to record them. There is a kick counter in the app to help you keep track of them. Within the first minute of recording, the baby kicked 7 times. Then about 5 minutes later, I felt some more. After 10 kicks, the app tells you something like “Congrats! Your baby has kicked 10 times within 2 hours…” So I guess that was good. Since the baby kicked that many in about 6 minutes.

Eric didn’t get to feel them because he was already up and in the shower. But I’m not even sure he would’ve been able to feel them since they feel more like taps than full-on kicks right now.

I’ve tried to be still some and feel for others today, but it’s been a little crazy with VBS. I’m running the MediaShout slides (basically putting up the words on the screens) for the worship rallies & music time. So you know I have to sing and the do the motions with all the songs Anyway, I was excited to finally hit this milestone in my pregnancy! I’ve been hoping for weeks to feel the baby move and it finally happened. I’m sure as they get stronger though, I’ll be ready for it to stop But for now, I’m savoring every minute of it!
