YAY!

Hi Ladies!!
i hope everyone is enjoying the "good times" of pregnancy! :)
i can feel baby getting stronger and stronger every week!!
Daddy was able to feel baby from the outside for the first time a few days ago, he was so excited!  Now everytime he puts his hand on my tummy or if he lays his face on my tummy he gets a "poke or a kick"

i can feel the baby kicking directly at my bellybutton.... and it feels SO WEIRD from the other side! lol
i am also starting to feel baby more throughout the night.. it doesn't keep my up at night, but i am aware of when the baby is moving around :) even our dog is wanting to hang out with my tummy  more often. :)

can wait to fnd out what we are having!! Nov. 19th can't come soon enough!

time is going by fast! it seems like forever ago that everyone was complaining about pregnancy sickness! lol and now we are all fantastic and enjoying what the little ones are doing in there! :)
the intensity of the kicks vary. sometimes they are gentle, and sometimes they are so strong they catch me off guard!! lol those ones are usually followed by a "HOLY MOLEY!" lol just last night i was lounging on the couch watching T.V. Daize (our boxer) was snuggled up to my tummy.. well the baby had a good poke/kick and Daize lifted her head and just STARED at my tummy LOL followed by a strong sniff on my belly and a lick.. lol
i couldn't stop laughing it was so funny!

I am loving being pregnant with my little princess!!! She loves for her daddy to touch my stomach she kicks and moves up a storm and when he kisses my stomach she really gets excited lke she really knows. Sometimes she is so strong you can feel her little foot or arm.

I'm really starting to get some strong kicks out of our little man too...Daddy hasn't had good enough timing yet to catch on though.  It's amazing that he has his own schedule already.  He's really active in the morning and then after I eat lunch, but at night I think he sleeps the whole time.  I'm sure once he gets bigger I'll start feeling him all the time, but for now he let's me sleep through the night! I'm glad everyone else is doing so well and I can't believe time is going by SO fast :)

Aww...I love when the lil ones start moving. It is always so exciting. My lil man has been moving for weeks now (will be 24wks Thursday) and was good and kicking daddy but lately if anyone besides me put a hand on my stomach he will absolutely not move!! My sis-in-law only got to see him move once while over at her house but he refuses to move for anyone. I think it is so funny. I keep telling everyone..."yep, this a lil momma's boy too"....LOL!

right there with you ladies! it was so cool.. the first time he felt her move, we were sitting on the couch after eating lunch.. baby became very active, and i had my shirt off my belly so i could put my hand directly on my belly. i said to him "your baby is kicking"  and he looked over just in time to see her give a strong one! he SAW the movement.. then immediately put his hand on my belly and felt her kicking :) i don't think either of us will ever forget that moment. she is getting stronger and gives some really hard kicks here and there. she was more gentle today.. but increasingly getting stronger overall. blessings to each of you and your pregnancies.. so fun to share similar experiences as each of you.

Isn't that awesome? My husband started feeling it a week or two ago as well (23 weeks on Thursday).  It was the coolest thing because now it really feels real.  I can always feel the baby while I am eating, or right after I am eating for sure.  Sometimes at night here and there when I am laying down for a while too.  

My doggie and cat are doing the same thing, they want to be right next to me or laying on my stomach.... it's pretty funny :)

Awwwh. My hubby got to feel our baby for the first time about a week and a half ago. I know what you mean about baby getting stronger. I can feel her throughout the day even when i am slightly active. I cannot wait to find out what you are having!!
