I'm with you, it is an amazing feeling and I spend ages watching by tummy behaving strangly, however my baby is now very active at night and often repetedly kicks or headbutts same area so am feeling a little sore. What is very cute is DH talking to tummy when he gets home and feeling baby kick, he really seems to react to his voice (not so great when he leaves at 5m and baby wakes up as OH says goodbye)It takes a lot of stress off when you can feel them moving each day after so long of no sign tht everything is ok

It is amazing. I keep feeling it this morning!! Smile

Thank you for your comments. I know it's a silly post because everyone feels it eventually but I am just so happy! Grin

I love the feeling of being kicked, its very reassuring although it can be quite annoying when I am trying to sleep. My husband puts his head on my bump to see if he can hear anything and usually gets kicked in the ear which he thinks is great!

I love it too :) I remember the first time DH felt it - it was even more special to me than the first time I felt it. The look on his face was amazing.

Now, even though it's annoying sometimes and can even be painful, it reassures me that he's big and strong and healthy. Still wish he'd give me a break when I try to lay on my back though - he just goes crazy and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to sleep on my sides :s

Renaissance it's not a silly post at all! It is amazing. I'm 28 weeks and still find it hard to believe there's a little person in there but the constant kicking, punching and moving around definitely helps. I'd certainly agree with the others that it can start getting annoying at night though!
