Alive and Kicking!
Hehe 
The title seems a bit dramatic yea…
I started to felt some movement in the womb last week. Actually, I wasn’t really sure earlier in the week because the sensation is very little. Only when I remain quiet and calm, then it felt like some ‘worm’ movement in the womb.
On Saturday, very early in the morning while still in bed, I felt it! This time it is different, because I can feel the kick with my hand placed on my womb area. It felt like a soft "thud" "thud" on the palm. I quickly got hold of hubby’s hand and try to let him feel it (hoping that baby is still kicking). Hubby, still in his sleepy mode…told me he felt it too!! Quite exciting!! Baby trying to establish first contact with us…the feeling is nice and amazing 
Now, off and on I felt the movement and kick. This gives me a renewed energy and I really feel like talking to baby more now. Sometimes, when I am talking, I felt the movement/kick as if baby is trying to respond (or maybe baby is asking me to be quiet 
)
It is overall a nice feeling and assure me that baby is growing fine, eventhou I really did not put on much weight yet. I thank God for this because deep inside I know I can trust God to keep my baby growing healthily, despite the earlier sickness I had and the occasional pain I felt here and there.
In another 2 weeks, I will be going for my next check-up. By that time, I am already well into 20th week of pregnancy. Gynae told me that we can check for the baby gender by then…wow…I really wanna know and hope baby is not playing hide and seek with us at that time. Whether baby is a boy or girl, it is not a big deal for us because baby is truly a wonderful gift from God.
