DH felt first kicks!!

Hi ladies...hadn't been on in several days because my mother and I have been alternating shifts at the hospital with my grandmother. She's nearing 80 yrs old and had a major surgery on her gall bladder this past Wed. Luckily, she is recovering and doing much better. Anyhow, just wanted to report that my husband and I felt the first exterior kicks yesterday. It was amazing. I felt it twice so I asked DH to hurry so he could feel it. He ran over and nothing...again felt it twice, he ran over, and nothing. Then I felt it two more times,asked him to just sit there and wait a bit and finally the baby kicked for him!!! He was just in awe of the moment. I told him baby was just toying with mommy and daddy "for kicks." hahaha. Oh, also want to congratulate the ladies that found out their baby's gender this week!!! I hope to be reporting after tomorrow evening's ultrasound. I'd hoped I would've known by last week's appt, but as I reported, I was referred to a diagnostics center. Take care :)

21 weeks today! I think it all becomes a little more "real" for everyone with each milestone. First a positive hpt, then first dr's appt, kicks, and then the crowning head...LOL. It's even more special when you're able to share it with the people you love. Hope you all are doing well. Take care :)
