claustrophobic
February 21, 2013
I’m about 5 months pregnant now and I haven’t felt Baby D kicked yet.
What I’m feeling now are just soft movements inside me, kinda like bubbles. In the beginning, I thought they were early warnings of gas (another Today’s Special on the Pregnancy Menu). But nothing happens down south so I called Dean back into the room and told him I think the baby’s starting to move in me.
As the days go on, I’m starting to feel the flutter more and more. After I’m done freaking out about a life inside of me, I realise it’s quite an amazing feeling.
Sometimes I worry. Like, are you uncomfortable in there? Is that why you’re moving and somersaulting like a fish trying to get out?
I can’t imagine how you and I were in our mom’s tummy for 9 whole months. In that tiny few inches space for almost 300 days! I’m such a restless person by nature that I’m surprised I didn’t just jump out of my Mom after a few days.
I hope my uterus isn’t boring. I mean, we don’t know! Maybe there are rainbows and all on the walls. Believe me, if I could install a TV in there I would let you watch comedy series for the whole 9 months so you won’t get bored. Or a mini laptop so you can shop online or start a blog.
Whatever it is, I hope you’re ok in there, Baby D. 4+ more months till you painlessly squeeze yourself out of me without tearing anything (a mom can dream…) and then you and I can open all the goodies we got you! Of course I’ll be the only excited one in that room…
You talking about how you can’t imagine how the baby is growing inside your tummy reminds me of this video 🙂 I love the video (although I’m not a mummy yet) Allah’s creation is truly truly amazing. Not sure if you’ve watched it but here’s the link.. Enjoy! http://youtu.be/eB3cMV70qSw
Take care V and baby D.
That’s normal not being able to recognise the baby’s movement at first. Usually when it comes to ur next babies you’ll notice them earlier. Make sure to chart them to see his/her daily movements to ensure that he/she is well. It is REALLY important! All the best in 4months. Can I kirim a doa, as a mummy-to-be as well? 🙂
LOL! That was funny and sweet! Trust me, those flutters are only the beginning. Baby D will be breakdancing in there before you know it!
OMA…cant help but LOL when it comes to’ mini laptop, shop online and start a blog’ part. Gila kelakar! HehehenTake care both of u <3
I always feel so happy when u post a new story… i feel like knowing you in real life… You’re such an inspiration for me, u know? In fact for many of us. And MasyaAllah.. do u know u earn pahala for being someone’s inspiration (the good way).. ? nnI pray for your safety and showered with a lot of nikmat and rahmat by Allah – u, Dean, family and everyone..nn<3 u V!nAmeeennn
Ahaa tu baru sikit dear…nanti dia buat somersault gangnam style dalam tu..you’ll be racing to the toilet je kerja nye. coz baby keep on pressing on the bladder! Nevertheless, it’s an amazing feeling!! For now only mommy can feel (secretly, the daddy is jealous – at least my husband was!). Soon the daddy pulak can feel. nAnother thing, there will come a time your tummy macam lobsided or out of shape sebab maybe apparently he/she has a favourite side. That will be so much fun to watch! LOL! n
In a month time you’ll be able to feel a blunt kick inside your belly.. And see the baby move from side to side. It’s a beautiful feeling subhanallah! Take care.
I started feeling flutters at 10 weeks of pregnancy. Then it went away. I’m suppose to be at my 5+ months of pregnancy by now. About the same time as you. But i had a miscarraige at 16 weeks of pregnancy. Have to wait 2-3 months to get pregnant again. Doctors orders. Anywhoooo… don’t want to be all sad. Do pray that I get pregnant again soon. And i pray that your pregnancy goes all well and Baby D and you are in great health throughout!
owh vivy, we are same. i also 5 months + now and i never felt baby kicking. only bubbles, bubbles and also very soft movement. x sabarnya nak rasa baby tendang 🙂
You can prevent from tearing by doing the perineal massage.just google and check it out.some more you can avoif the ‘ring of fire’ sensstion too by doing so.
