On Monday, January 3rd, I had my last ultra sound to check the anatomy of the baby. Again, it was so amazing to see this life inside me. The lady said we have a VERY active baby. She had asked if I had felt any movement yet, and I said 'no'. She told me that as soon as I did it would be all the time b/c how much baby was moving already! :)
I was really sad that Joao was not with me b/c I knew this was probably the last time we would see baby. That morning, Joao left for Rwanda. :(
Anyhow, that day I went home feeling really good (like I always do after an ultra sound) and decided to go for a run. When I came home I ate some food and then chilled on the couch. That was the first time I felt the "POP". It was like I had just eaten some street tacos in Mexico and my stomach was not loving the aftermath. I was kinda not sure what was going on....and then I realized....I was feeling my baby! OMG! Words cannot describe it!
I just sat alone on the couch, laugh and wishing I could tell Joao all about it. What a day to finally feel the baby...ironic...maybe?
Well, no worries...b/c once Joao gets home he will have a chance everyday to feel the baby b/c it is a moving fool!
I just adore the feeling b/c I feel so connected to the baby! I am trying to convince myself to start singing to the baby but I think it will never want to come out if it hears my singing voice! hahaha
Ohhhh...there it goes. It loves to move at night and when I am sitting down. Well, I am going to end with this...it seems like the right spot. Next post will come soon again!
