Baby Movement ? (Week 17)



I was lying in bed this morning with my hands on my belly, concentrating and trying to decipher whether I can feel my baby move yet or whether I'm just feeling the usual belly rumblings. Suddenly I felt what seemed to be the baby doing a somersault! I could feel it internally as well as with my hands. I smiled to myself and thought, "Dave would have been able to feel that". I then drifted back to sleep.

When I awoke some time later, I couldn't figure out whether I had been dreaming or whether I had really felt the baby move. I still remember the sensation, but I believe it was just a dream.

  1. It helps if you lay on your stomach with your hand underneath your belly. You can really feel the baby move then! I kind of thought the 1st movements felt like a butterfly inside my belly. :)

  2. Ok, I'll try that. Don't want to squish the baby!
