While I have felt plenty of kicks and rolls so far, I haven't been able to feel anything from the outside...until last night. I was sitting up in bed, doing a crossword puzzle, when I felt an unmistakable kick. As usual my hand flew right to the spot, not expecting to feel anything but checking anyway. I left it there for about 30 seconds when it happened, twice, about 15 seconds apart. Just little nudges against my palm, but enough for me to feel like this is finally happening. Wouldn't you know it, Mr. M was out of town for work last night? I thought about calling him but it was 10:30 and I knew he had probably fallen asleep right after I talked to him at 9:00. I called him as soon as I got in to the office this morning.

One week until my ultrasound, this is exactly what I needed for the final push.
