Kicks

I have finally really been able to feel our sweet little baby kick.  Every time it happens, I get so excited and tell whoever is around me.  I know at some point the kicks will be painful and a burden, but right now they are miraculous!  Every time I tell Travis, he tries to feel her kick too.  I even tried to lay on his hand because I feel her more when I am on my tummy.  Unfortunately it is too early, but his time to feel her will come soon enough. 

Yesterday I got to hear her heartbeat and my doctor had to chase her around to keep a consistent heartbeat.  She said that Baby Barlow kept moving all over the place.  The same thing happened at both of my ultrasounds.  She kept moving and kicking and turning. (I guess it is good I can't feel every move!)

I was telling my parents this and my Dad said it is my fault.  He said it's because I jostle her around all the time at the gym.  I don't know if she is fighting back or if she is just active since I am always on the move.  Either way, I am going to soak up each moment I feel her.  Hopefully in the coming weeks Travis will be able to feel her too!
