I'm so excited!! I felt the baby move. I thought I felt the baby last week.... But this was for sure. I was sitting down and felt something weird on my belly...I put my hand and I actually felt the baby. Almost seemed like it was the baby's head... Like it was doing a summersault. I started to cry right away!! It was amazing... I can't keep my hands off my belly now :)

Depends on how active if the baby is... Suni was pretty tame, but jessa's dyllie, he's a real kicker
