The sweetest thing...

Yesterday while I was at my 2hr glucose test, I noticed that when the baby rolled, so did my belly! I watched it lift and fall as the baby stretched out - it was amazing! Afterwards, I met up with my dad for lunch, as I was starving... I'm no good at this whole fasting thing! While we were at lunch, HE noticed the belly roll... so the baby has finally gotten big enough to stretch out my belly.

I was very excited, I thought finally Rob will be able to see it!

So, at home after dinner we both raced upstairs and I sat on the bed very still... waiting for the baby to move... nothing. We waited for about 10 minutes if not longer, and then I gave up and said we'll try again when the baby is awake.

Later on that night, as we were getting into bed, the baby was moving just a bit... hardly noticeable. Rob turned off the bedside light and put his hand on my belly. He never does this, says it's uncomfortable...

*kick*

Rob asked if the baby just kicked, I thought he wouldn't have noticed...

*kick*

Woah... did it kick again??

Rob's face lit up, and he had tears in his eyes as he said he felt it... he said he felt the baby reach out and poke him, as if to say "Hi daddy, I'm here..."

My favourite moment, thus far.
