Yesterday A* was telling me how she was still unsure of if she had felt the baby move and how hard it is to keep going so long without feeling it. Even though we saw the baby moving on the ultrasound, we didn't get very good printed pictures to show (or prove?) the baby to others. But last night, as we were watching a local high school theatre awards show, A* rested arm bounced off her belly with an exclamation of "Wow!". The baby gave a huge kick! I placed my hand roughly in the same spot and about 30 seconds or so later, I felt it too!!!! It was one of the most wonderful things I have ever felt. It didn't happen anymore after that, but it was clearly the sign we were longing to feel. I am still in awe of what I felt and makes my expectations of holding this little one in my arms even greater!
