The one that wasn't so much fun.

I am posting this dream because all women go through moments of excitement and of fear when they are pregnant. My fear was that I hadn't felt my baby move yet. I'm at 18 weeks and all the books say that it can happen as early at 15 weeks so I was starting to wonder if it would ever happen. It my waking hours it didn't really bother me all that much. It was more a bother to me, I just wanted to feel that little kick to know there really was something in there and that I wasn't just getting huge!

2 mights ago I had a dream that was fast and dirty. But it shook me for the whole day. I simply dreamed that my baby had no heart beat. In my dream I had one of those at home heartbeat finders and I couldn't locate my baby's heartbeat. I went to the doctor and all the nurse would do was take my blood. Why couldn't SHE find the heartbeat for me? That would be such a fast solution and put my mind at ease. I woke up with no answers and still thinking that my baby had no heartbeat. I told this dream to my fiancee who told me that was a horrible thing to dream but that it's natural (he is one of those guys that actually reads the books). I knew that logically but it still shook my whole day. How scary is that?

The wonderful silver lining of that dream is that last night when I was laying in bed reading my book, I felt a little flutter. And then another. And then a strong kick.

It was the most glorious feeling in the whole entire world. My baby seems to love the sound of his daddy's voice because when he talked to me last night seemed to be when I felt the most movement. How FREAKING cool!

  1. I remember the first time I felt a baby kick from someone else's belly....it was the most amazing thing ever! I cannot wait to feel those little feet myself! (From your belly, not feet in my own!)
