Some serious movement

Since the doctor informed me that my placenta is up against the outside of my belly, or, that I have an 'anterior placenta' (which basically means there is a cushion between the baby and me feeling her move), I had not felt much of the baby's movement-- Until the other night when I was sitting at the airport waiting for my delayed flight. All of a sudden I started feeling definate kicks/punches just right of center. The movement went on steadily for about 45 minutes and a few times I even saw my belly change shape. Later, on the airplane, I felt her moving on the left side for about 30 minutes. I don't know if I ate or drank something different that day, but I haven't felt as much movement since that night-- though I'm still registering random kicks and flails.

I'm so glad to be feeling her more now and it tells me that she is getting bigger and stronger all the time.
