It's Alive!
The Husband and I went to bed last night and since we hadn't seen each other all day, I made the effort to ask about his work and to follow the narrative involving motions and witnesses and victims. I was lying on my back (not for long... I know) with my hands on my belly and suddenly shrieked as I felt movement coming from inside. The Husband of course felt nothing after recovering from his shriek-prompted heart attack. Let me tell ya, I thought that kick a couple of days ago scared me. That was cake.

My co-worker delivered a healthy baby boy last night. I was sorry to hear that it was an emergency c-section. Apparently the cord was wrapped around the neck. I understand the necessity and I'm sure she's fine with it but I felt bad for her for a moment since she had wanted natural childbirth so badly. She attended the same Bradley class as I am attending now and she actually switched to my doctor because her last OBGYN made some really strange claims including: all first time mothers get an episiotomy and that once labor started he would break the water to prevent infection.
Regardless, I am so pleased to hear that she and her eight pound bundle of joy are doing well and that I can finally buy a pair of the cutest shoes ever to give to him.

Ooh those are really cute. :)
Told you!! It happens really fast... from little flutters to kickboxing in a matter of days. Even though I admit to being slighly wigged out by it since it's pretty new, it's very reassuring to feel the wiggling. If my baby sleeps and doesn't move for a while, I worry. I think we're only a couple of days apart (I'm due 8/6) so it's fun to hear your accounts of just what I'm going through. We're also signed up for a Bradley class but don't start in May. Glad everything turned out well with your friend and her baby... her doc sounds scary.
