I SWEAR I FELT THE BABY MOVE!!!

At first I thought I was nuts, I was sitting here watching "Work Out" and felt this....almost tapping on my lower abdomen. So then I helped B put bubba to bed, got up pee'd, got a popsicle and sat back down. A few minutes after sitting down again, I felt it again. The same spot, the same finger-tap feeling. I thought I was beyond crazy, but I felt bubba and pooks at 15 weeks. So I ''googled'' it, and it is possible to feel movement at 13 weeks!

Quote:
"Some moms can feel their babies move as early as 13-16 weeks from the start of their last period. These first fetal movements are called quickening and are often described as flutters. It may be difficult to determine whether this feeling is gas or your baby’s movements, but soon you will begin to notice a pattern. First-time moms may not feel these movements as early as second-time moms" http://www.americanpregnancy.org/duringpregnancy/firstfetalmovement.htm

Then WebMd:

"By the second pregnancy, some women start to feel movements as early as 13 weeks. You're more likely to feel baby move when you're in a quiet position, either sitting or lying down." http://www.webmd.com/baby/fetal-movement-feeling-baby-kick

So I guess I'm not nuts!? Its so surreal and I'm SO excited!!
