    I just started to really feel the babies kicking two weeks ago, and now I feel them *constantly*! Yesterday I felt a kick and saw my belly move out of the corner of my eye, so I spent the next 10 minutes just watching my belly jump and giggling :D

    Sciatic pain, sleepless nights, constant peeing -- it's all worth it whenever I feel (and now see!) my bellyful of babies move!

    I have been enjoying this here lately too- If they are already doing this, I can not imagine what it will look like when they are a bit bigger!

    that is really cool. i just put up a whine post, but yours reminds me that this is also the most special experience of my life. i am at the point where i have limbs/butts/heads poking out in various spots of the belly. my 4 yo dd and i think it's the coolest thing. dh is kinda freaked out by it. (he keeps saying 'boys you are so grounded when you're born for putting your mom through this!')

    I just read your other post, and it's perfectly OK to complain too! Believe me, this pregnancy is not all roses and sunshine, and I've had my share of complaining days too! However, I'm well aware that I've had a really good pregnancy so far, and I'm incredibly thankful! But you are also 10 weeks further along than I am, so talk to me again in 10 weeks, and we'll see how upbeat I am then ;)

    But yes, every now and then I'm reminded of how totally amazing it is not just to be pregnant (which in and of itself is pretty amazing), but to be growing two babies in there! So I really do try to focus on the positive of it all because I feel really blessed.

    That is just awesome! I remember taking my sister to one of my NST's. While doing the ultrasound, she got a kick out of seeing my belly move, something was moving inside (arm or something). IT was so neat being in the bathtub and watching! I can't wait!

    I like it too. I will lift my shirt over my tummy so DH can see them moving too :).

    I too love this part, it does make all the hurt seem to fade away for those few minutes. I haven't been able to identify any hands or feet because they way they are positioned but I have seen a butt here or there. They are getting so big and running out of room that when one starts so does the other, like they are saying "hey stick to your side" but the movement has slown down since my tummy is soooo tight!

    Thats so fun; I will really miss this part of being pregnant. I try to remember the feeling since I know these were my last....I wish there were a way to put it in a scrapbook!

    I always thought it looked like aliens in your stomach, stretching and kicking and punching their way out!
