My husband felt the baby kick tonight. I've been feeling kicks for 3 weeks now and the last couple days they have been very strong and all the time. I've even started to feel him/her rolling around. My husband has been very excited to feel the baby move. His favorite part of course. So I'm lying in bed and he comes in and the baby had just woken up because he started kicking after a couple hours of nothing. So I tell my husband he is kicking. So I push on my tummy a little trying to bug him enough to move around a bit. And then my husband puts his hand on my belly and i feel one realyl good kick and I didn't say anything but my hubby totally felt it!! And then there was another and another. And then my husband pushed a little harder to feel better and the baby just went to town kicking his hand. It was great!!!! It's so exciting!! I miss laying in bed and being able to SEE the baby rolling around in there. 3 more weeks till we find out if it's a boy or girl (it's a boy, I already know). By then hopefully I will be feeling great kicks and so will my husband.

I know that you are excited about that. I am 15 weeks today and I still haven't felt the baby kick yet, but people say that it is different with other people.  Babies can kick early with some women and later with others.  Congrats on the movement.  Let me know when you find out what you are having.    Lori

i carried my first EXACTLY like my mom carried all her girls. watermelon belly that hung very low. and i didn;t show tilla bout 25 weeks. with this one i am carrying EXACTLY like my mom carried her boys. sticking straight out, not super high but fefinately not low, and showing right away and getting HUGE right away. also it;s the man's genetics that determine whether it is a boy or girl. and my husband is from guatemala. he has a MASSIVE family there. hundreds of people and out of all of them plus who is here my daughter is the 4th GIRL to ever be BORN into the family. all the others marry in and then have more boys. odds are i will have no more girls, and my daughter was just a flook that happened. i really wanted another little girl too!!! my two little ballerina's in there tutus dancing around the house!!
