Kicking

We’d been worried for a couple of weeks that the baby wasn’t kicking, given that Phyllis normally always is able to feel the kicking pretty early on. There was a heartbeat, however, so the hospital told us not to worry.

A couple of days ago, Phyllis’s doctor then managed to use the equipment he uses for listening to the baby’s heartbeat to let her listen to the kicking, so it was clear that it was happening, even if she couldn’t feel it (probably because the placenta was in the way).

And today the baby has been kicking strongly, so strongly that even I could feel it when I was lucky enough to place my hand in the right place! 🙂

It’s a shame 4D scans aren’t offered for free – I’d really like one of those, just to see how the baby looks while it kicks!
