Falling in love
This is the strangest thing that's ever happened to me. I'm certain moms
will understand and maybe even shrug and say "it's normal", but I find the experience fascinating yet unsettling. I am now at the end of my 16th week, and since Monday I have been feeling my baby moving inside me. "There's someone in my belly", is what I am now saying instead of "I'm pregnant". Since then, I find myself with a stupid smile more and more often, but that's not the strangest thing. I also often feel these surges of pure pleasure swelling my belly, my lungs, my heart, along with these little butterflies in my stomach. I tried to pinpoint the feeling, and I found only one wonderful explanation: I am falling in love! Falling in love with my baby, only 16 weeks into conception, utterly and blindly, not knowing baby's gender, baby's looks, nothing. Nothing but this wonderful feeling... It is exhilarating.

[...] Isn't it wonderful? I used to feel like I had the best secret on earth. Here I was, fixing bugs, going to meetings, and there was this person sending me secret messages every now and then by moving around, turning, kicking... The feeling was made stronger when we heard the heartbeat on the Doppler... It was like, holy cow, that's not MY heartbeat. It's his! -- Anita -- |

It probably is normal - and I know exactly what you're talking about. At some point, she became an individual to me. It was wonderful and terrifying at the same time. Enjoy the feeling; it's an amazing time. :-) Liz mom to Emily, 5/25/04 -- "No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.
