I think I felt the baby move this week! All of the books and blogs and message boards are telling me that there's no way I did (usually first time moms don't feel it until around 18 weeks) but I really think I did.
It truly felt like there was a butterfly in my belly and the wings brushed up against the inside of my stomach. Not nearly as frightening as I expected and way quicker than I would have hoped, but still very cool!
Every night since I have laid in bed on my back with my eyes closed, concentrating to try and feel it again. Still haven't felt it again but it's really hard for me to not fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.
Tomorrow (Friday the 17th) I have another doctor's appointment. I'm going to take this one solo because she told me apart from the 20 week sonogram to determine if it's a he or she, appointments are going to be pretty quick and routine. I should get to hear the heartbeat again so I'll let you know where we're at in terms of beats per minute this weekend.
