Need I say more? Fluttery, pokey kicks!
Hi, there, Bean! ("Hi there, Mommy, hi there, Mummy!")
(For those of you who will nitpick and mention that the Bean is not saying hello to me, that I can't yet feel those little flutters, cease! Mommy pokes me everytime the Bean pokes her. It's like a family game of "telephone".)
This is also the week where the Bean will begin to hear and respond to external noises. One website that we consult fairly regularly notes that loud noises that the baby becomes accustomed to in the womb will not likely be an issue after birth. Which means that the Bean should be able to sleep through NPR with no problems. Either that, or Scott Simon's voice will be as familiar and welcome as either of ours.
And in a couple months, when those delicate, fluttery little kicks have become more akin to Dara Torres swimming laps, you'll not only be able to feel, but see them!
