But today. Today I pretty much felt nothing all day long. I might have felt a roll or two in the mid-morning hours but nothing since then. I did have a few errands to run in town and I just told myself that he was just being extra quiet since I was busy. But still nothing when I got home. Nothing during dinner and then still nothing while putting my boy to bed. At the point I was starting to panic a bit and I'd be lying if I said I didn't cry at one point (I'm a crier anyway, so this was not unusual). After C was asleep, I took a nice long bath hoping to get him moving.
About 15 minutes into the bath I felt a little something. I tried to just concentrate on my book but I felt it again and looked down at my belly just in time to see a little kick/punch. I turned in the water on to my side and put my hand on the underside of my belly. Almost immediately I felt 2 firm kicks right into the palm of my hand. WHEW. I feel so much better now. No idea why he was so quiet all day long, unless all the movements yesterday just tired him out. I'm also starting to think I might have an anterior placenta, which would be blocking a lot of the kicks right now. So anyway, this baby now's how to get to his mama. :)
In other news, about a month ago my DH decided that he was going to hatch, raise, and sell chickens. No real reason, just another one of his ideas he gets and runs with. So for the past 2.5 weeks we've had an incubator full of eggs sitting on our kitchen table. Tonight this happened:
