Baby Movements - Week 17

For the past 2 weeks I have been extremely careful about anything I feel inside. Of course, I have been expecting to feel somebody knocking my belly door and letting me know there is a baby there. The truth is, nobody knocked on my door. However, I have been feeling things. I cannot describe them but sometimes it feels like butterflies in my stomach, sometimes is like a little pain, sometimes is just like a stomachache with gas. To be honest, I do not have the exact date and time of the first baby movement. However, I can share when exactly the baby react to an external factor: light! Last night, Alex took a little light and pointed it to my belly, he was talking to the baby and introducing him/her to the light and the baby responded. Even Alex felt something too! We are so glad of everything we are experiencing in this stage of our live...I hope to have more stories to share soon
