felt a kick or am crazy

I was sitting talking to a client today and I felt a distinct kick in my bladder.  I am only 11 weeks tomorrow, how is that possible?  With Adrian I felt movement at 15.5 weeks, and was expecting babyH to move at 14 perhaps, but not this early.  Maybe I am deluded, but I am quite sure of what I felt, and it's not like I haven't felt it before, it was very much a baby kick.  Small, but there.  So cute! Love it.

Tomorrow is my first prenatal appointment.  I am going to ask about whether I should prepare to move downstairs.  My apartment has two levels, the bottom level has the kitchen and the living room, and only one small toilet, the upstairs has the bedroom and the shower.   I don't think I will be allowed stairs on a daily basis, and I can't be upstairs with no daylight and no food, so I think we'll move the bed into the kitchen.  I don't quite know how I will wash, but I think by pouring water from the sink with a large cup over my head while standing in a bucket...hehe, like in the good ol'days in Romania, when we had to heat up the water on the stove 'cause there was no hot water ever.  I got the training I needed for a lifetime.  Any suggestions as to how to improve this washing situation?

I need to hear if anybody else felt a baby kick this early, or am I insane?

  1. I have heard that with second pregnancies you can feel the second one much earlier because you know what you are looking for!!

  2. Totally possible. With my current pregnancy, I was pretty sure I felt the baby kick around 12 weeks - on more than one occasion. I kept writing it off as gas or whatever, but then I asked the doctor at PCRM when I did my FTS and he said - yeah, totally possible and it probably was the baby.

  4. Haha...love the bucket visual. Maybe you can get a horse trough (seriously) and put it in the kitchen like an old fashioned bath tub. Sadly can't comment on the pregnancy....haven't experienced one myself (yet?).

  6. Happy ICLW! I'm not far behind you. I'm still really anxious about everything since this is my first pregnancy, but I know I have to take it one day at a time. GL with your next appointment.
