Flutterings

Oh those little flutterings have started.

The ones that make you realise for certain there's something alive inside you.

The medical term for it is 'quickening' - I call it butterflies in the stomach.

If there's one thing that makes pregnancy worth it for all its other unpleasant symptoms, it is this.

The movement that springs from within you - and you can only imagine what aquatic acrobatics are being performed.

Congrats on your butterfly feelings. Praying for a very peaceful pregnancy and that maybe now sweet Vera will rest so you can sleep peacefully at night.

You stated it perfectly, May. My kids are 27 and soon to be 31 and I STILL remember that feeling!
So very happy for you!!!
