I know you're in there.

I can feel the baby now. It's sort of like I swallowed the insides of a lava lamp. And I love it.

Before this whole pregnancy-thing was very abstract. Sure ultrasounds and dopplers and test results indicated the presence of baby, but those are just images and sounds and numbers. This is real.

I like knowing he's in there. Hello, little guy! It's comforting to know he is with me.

Of course, the downside of this is that he is not in constant motion; therefore, I do not get constant sensations. I miss him then. And if I haven't felt him in a while I worry.

He's with me right now, doing kicks or flips or punches. I don't really know what he's up to in there, but I can feel it. And it is wonderful.
