Kaua surprised DH

So the firecracker (aka Wyatt Kaua) is definitely a mover and a shaker again. And whenever DH is home, and the firecracker is moving, I tell my DH (and sorta force him) to come feel him moving (why is it that DH isn't glued to my tummy everytime Kaua moves like I would think I would be if our roles are reversed?). So last night, as I was putting DH's hand on my belly, the firecracker really really kicked hard. For me, Wyatt doing significant movements is becoming a normal thing, but for DH, all the other movements he's felt have been generally light taps. But nope, this one was a full on limb pushing out and pressing against my belly and brushing it. Upon feeling this, DH jumped and made a weird face and pulled his hand back. He was so surprised at the force of the movement. He said it was like an alien was in my tummy. It cracked me up!!! I told him that that was how our son has been moving for a while now, as if he wants to jump out my belly, and he was just so amazed and in awe. I couldn't stop laughing for a good 2 minutes at DH's surprise. That moment was definitely priceless and something I want to treasure (hence the bloggy entry).

I am just LOVING this pregnancy and feeling this little guy move all the time!! He definitely makes me giggle when he's so active. And he's active generally up high on my belly, which according to something I read somewhere, could indicate that he's head down and feet up because the feet are generally in the location where you feel most movement. I dont know if that's true, but if Kaua is head down, then that's fine by me. We definitely want him in the right position when its time for birth. (Which shouldn't be for at least another 12 weeks...so sit tight baby boy!).

Anyways, that's all in the pregnancy chapter for today.

MIL leaves in 1 week (wahooo!) and my mom is coming to visit for the weekend, beginning tomorrow! Yay! (I love my mommy!).

  1. When my Hubby first felt a *good* kick, he told me that he never really thought about me being able to feel him moving around all the time. It really made me laugh. It really made it all seem so real for him.

    I am happy you and your Hubby had that moment!

  2. I am so jealous! DH honestly cannot feel Eli outside. Heck, I can barely feel him! But what a precious moment! So sweet!
