a few days ago i was leaning up to the shampoo bowl at work and i felt some pain in my lower abdomen. i moved away and the pain stopped. the next day i had little pinches in my side, one right after another and i realized it wasnt the baby just sitting there not liking my positions but that the baby was using my side as a punching bag! it is so exciting to know that our baby is growing and getting strong enough to hurt me. i dont mind the kicking during the day but when we go to sleep, that is the babies clue to wake up and that is just not ok!
