I felt the flutters!

Shifter · Sep 18th, 2008, 06:01 AM

Last night I was lying in bed trying to get to sleep. I was on my left side with a support pillow against my bump and I started to feel something in the left side of the bump that was pressed up against the pillow. It started to make me feel a bit sick and I tried to ignore it but it didn't stop and as I lay there I began to realise what it was.

It went on for about a minute. I was afraid to move in case it stopped but I wanted to wake hubby and tell him, so I nudged him with my free elbow and called out to him. I told him I could feel it and he woke right up and pressed his hand against my tummy. I had to tell him he wouldn't be able to feel it yet but he still had this sleepy smile on his face!

It was totally unlike anything I have ever felt in my body before and in a position where it couldn't really have been anything else. It was incredible!

Wow i'm so jealous! Must feel so comforting..

The other night as i was lying on my side my stomach suddenly went weird too, like a mini washing machine inside it and i felt a bit queasy, then it stopped. Wonder if that was it too??? I just thought maybe it was some weird stomach bug but it stopped within ten seconds. Hmmmm.

Enjoy those flutters!
