Unbelievable! I was sitting on the couch today working as usual and all of a sudden I felt a kick! I didn't know what to think at first - I just felt a gentle little puck. I have been waiting to feel a little kick now for the last week cause woman can sometimes feel it as early as 16 weeks - so at first, I thought I was just imagining it and went back to work. Then I was on a conference call about 30 minutes later and I felt it again - a gentle little punch in my lower abdomen. Then I felt it 2 more times throughout the next hour. So I am convinced that the little baby is starting to kick and make it presence known to the world! I haven't felt anything since, so he/she is probably sleeping - probably enjoying the afternoon snack of chocolate candies I had :) I don't think Ryan will be able to feel the kick yet as it is too gentle - but hopefully in the next couple of weeks it will get a little stronger. It is a strange and unbelievable sensation - one that I am sure I will grow to love over the next few months (as long as he/she doesn't kick too hard!!)
Well the ultrasound is on Monday and so I am so excited to see the baby - finally! We are able to bring in a VHS tape so that they can record it which will be great - I will have to find a VHS (does anyone use these anymore? - luckily my parents still have one!) so I can show Ryan the little baby that evening. Monday will be the big decision - should we decide to know the sex of the baby? From looking at the poll, it is a very tight decision - although slightly favored in not finding out the sex. I guess it will be a game time decision as I am still complete undecided!!
Talk to you all later!

Oh that is so exciting! I remember the first time I felt Rylee kick...i was right around 16 or 17 weeks too! Just makes everything seem so much more real. just wait until you can actually SEE the kicks poking out of your belly! truly a miracle :) can't wait to hear if you find out the sex! i am on pins and needles! love you!
I felt both boys early- I think it just depends on your body. You should find out- definitely :)
