little earthquakes

no, not tori amos' album.  :)

at 27 weeks, feeling little earthquakes at all times of the day!  the only way to explain the feeling/happening is... imagine you're dreaming, and you're falling off a cliff, and you have the deep pit feeling in your stomach?  that's sometimes what it feels like. :)

i have been feeling A and B's heads (since they're pretty much knocking on each other's bag, they're so close) press against my belly... above the b. button to my left... small size of an orange or so...

i think that i'm starting to feel both of them move around at the same time... or movement in two different areas.   i do feel a lot of movement around my b. button, though.

we'll see if i'm right. :)

update 10/10/10: YUP, i'm right.  i felt both move at the same time last night!  a bit of space out on both sides of my belly button, i felt them!

belly button a-poppin'!!!

when i was staying in CA for two weeks in june/july this summer, i was flabbergasted when i noticed something.

i couldn't believe it.  my belly button started to pop out!  i called my husband, and told him (he was in AZ, painting while i was out there) that i kept trying to push it back in.  LOL.

i started to ask around, when did your belly button start to pop out?  i kept hearing late in the pregnancy, and honestly, i just felt ridiculous and out of place that mine started so soon- 20 weeks early?!  serious?!  i couldn't understand.  i researched, and couldn't find an answer.

i just learned to accept it.  i don't know why it happened so soon, but perhaps, it's because i'm carrying twins.  :)  i guess that's just how my body is, but it has been a strange transformation to see my innie as an innie, and now it's an outie... i just press against it, and it feels jelly.  LOL.  sometimes, it's even more peculiar to see my belly button move when i'm motionless, lying still...  that makes me feel like aliens are in my body, even though, i know that they aren't. :)
