Poke Him
Last night l felt Lou kick and roll around inside the Missus. Amazing to feel the sudden buldge there at her belly.
The Missus said,
“He’s moving! Quick feel here.”
I felt him once, then nothing.
“I don’t feel him now,” I said.
“Poke him, that usually gets him going.”
So I poked and there, again, he moved. And again l felt the rolling bulge as he pressed outwards.

On other fronts: the big pillow is evidently comfortable, but not the hoped for poor sleep cure. Too bad, but it’s good that Tylenol pm is a-ok according to the obgyn. Nothing like drugs.
“Poke him, that usually gets him going.”
Further evidence that we like to irritate our kids early on.
“The big pillow is evidently comfortable, but not the hoped for poor sleep cure.”
I really do enjoy the pillow and think that it is making a difference in sleeping comfort. Unfortunately, the Snoogle doesn’t have much influence over hormones, heartburn or a full bladder every 2 hours. Ah well, frequent waking is good practice for when Lou comes along.
Oddly enough, baby movement was one of my favorite things about being pregnant. I especially liked the alien-like terrain when the baby did a complete 360.
