I'm 21 weeks and have just started to feel baby kicking :) I'm now laid in bed watching baby kicking instead of gettin ready to go out!!! But I had to share this as it has taken me a long time to bond and "feel pregnant" (despite baby being very much planned and wanted!) and now I most definatly feel pg!!!!lol :)

That's great 
I waited a long time for this baby, and I think I spent the first 20 weeks convinced that something would go wrong and found it difficult to get excited about the baby coming (incase it didn't). I found I was reassured by the 20 week scan and my 24 week antenatal appointment, and am coming to the realisation that the most likely outcome of this pregnancy is a healthy baby to look after so I have to get ready!
I think feeling the baby kick around this time helped, because I can now feel for myself that the little one is active, and I talk to my belly more and rub it in response.
I think after waiting so long to concieve made me reluctant to get my hopes up at first.
