seeing baby kick stomach

First time mom and I started reading poems to my baby boy and I think he's enjoys it cause he kicks. I find it interesting to see when the baby kicks. How's anyone seen their stomach move when the baby kicks?

Yea, I have been noticing my baby girl kick and can see it on my skin. It's really a nice feeling!

My hubby does sort of the same thing! We have a whole set of Sandra Boynton board books, and he picks one to read to my belly every night. Sometimes it seems to make baby really squirmy, and other times it seems to settle him down.
It's really neat to see him roll and kick under my skin.
On an unrelated note, I highly recommend those Sandra Boynton books. The illustrations are adorable!

It was about 20 weeks when I started to see my belly move with his kicks, too, but it was very little. Now it's much more noticeable and he's only a month farther along.

I think I started being able to see when my son kicked at just before 20 weeks, but it was very faint.
