We Have Contact

Two days ago I got woken up at 5:36am with serious bubbling of gas in stomach. I promptly went to the toilet to ease myself into a reasonable dump (bowel movement to the more refined) for a bit of a relief.

Once done, I returned to bed, patted Apeman on the head and tried to go back to sleep. The `gas bubbling' had gotten worse. So no more sleep for me and I sat in bed wide awake.

That afternoon, whilst watching TV with Apeman, I complained about the lack of sleep, and suddenly the stomach started to REALLY bubble. I pulled my top to review my dancing stomach, little prods and kicks can been seen clearly - unlike the gentle `nudges' I was feeling before in the lower pelvic region. This time it was right on the stomach.

`OH MY GOD THAT WAS THE BABY!'.

And we have made contact.

I have never yet teared up while reading a post that contains the words "gas" "dump" and "bowel movement".

Until today.

Isn't it the best? I had some strong enough movement last night that my hubbie could feel it and I think I saw him get a little weepy eye'd.
