Reassurance

I know it seems silly, and maybe the product of my anxiety, but there's something incredibly reassuring about being able to feel the baby kick the first thing in the morning. I love the gentle reminder that she's still here with me.

Most mornings lately I feel her almost immediately after I wake up, but I was sitting here for a while before I began to feel her move today. I immediately felt more relaxed once she started squirming and kicking. As my pregnancy progresses, feeling her move might seem less special or even uncomfortable; but for now, the flutters and kicks leave me feeling incredibly grateful.
