Is It Possible?!

I swear I just felt a kid kick the side of my gut. I could swear, but isn't it a little too early?! I mean, there are two in there after all; they are fighting for space. I suppose it could be possible that a tiny little leg cramped from lack of space could have karate chopped my side, isn't it?! It didn't feel like any sort of digestion or otherwise. I think it was a kick. That settles it; my kid is kicking me....already.

Kick away kid...kick away!

Several Hours Later.....

So I felt it again. I'm pretty sure he/she/they are really kicking in there and it's not my imagination. They are telling me that they are just fine. I know that's what they're saying. For sure.

Kristen, I am very late getting in on all of this...I just read below the long post about finding out about the possible problems...and the twins...

Please know that I will be praying for you and your little lifes growing inside- as well as your whole family.

I was told in my first pregnancy when I had an ultrasound done, that I had a very good chance that the baby would be born with Downs Syndrome. I didn't want to have the CVS done, I was too nervous about it...so I had to keep coming back for high-level ultrasounds. I knew I would love my baby no matter what, but I was very scared.

I know it doesn't work out this way for everyone...but in this case, God was merciful, and the baby was born completely free of an extra chromosome...
I believe that God can still do miracles, even while babies are still being formed and knitted in the womb. So I will be praying...
And praying most of all that God gives you incredible peace.
(((HUGS)))

It's much more exciting to be kicked from inside the womb, isn't it! I agree...keep kicking!

How sweet, Kristen. Sounds like it's getting crowded in there which means the little ones are growing. I'm holding my breath until you get some test results but I tell you, I have a good feeling about this.

AnnG said...

I just love that feeling until the baby is sooo big it really hurts, but anyway:) those kicks are such good signs that I know you are welcoming them. Kick on babies!!

How exciting! I always loved those first little kicks.

Hey, I was updating the prayer list in my sidebar today, and went to link here, and noticed that you'd made a button in your sidebar-- I swiped it! I hope that's ok. If you'd rather I not use it, just let me know.

You & those precious babies are still in my prayers!

I just wanted to jump in and tell you that you aren't crazy! I felt my twins kick very early!!! I too believe that it is simply that there are two in there jockying for position and they tend to get into bizarre positions.

You may even feel them regularly for a few days or weeks and then not feel anything again for a while at this stage in the pregnancy. I'm praying for continual actively kicking days!

Unknown said...

That is very exciting!

I hopped over from 5 Minutes for Mom. You, your babies, and your family are in my prayers.

I felt kicks at 18 weeks when I was pregnant with my twins. I also had horrible morning sickness all of the way up to week 32 of my twin pregnancy.

I'll be back to visit and will be praying for you all.
