He is kicking around like crazy.........

and I think it is his way of telling me everything will be ok. That he is there for me and he will bring something extra special to my life.

This depression definately has a hold of me and every time I have cried today he begins to move around. He does it so gently yet deliberately. Kind of like a big hug from the inside.

 Anyone else think this way?

I've been working through periods of depression too during this pregnancy. I'm really starting to finally get over the worst of them now. But, whenever I would sit there crying my eyes out, my LO would start kicking away too. I like to think it was his way of helping me feel better.

I know just what you mean.  When I'm feeling sad at times, my LO will kick and nothing else matters at that moment.

I have been dealing with a lot of work related stress (possibly loosing my job soon) that's been also stressing my husband out, and yeah, I completely agree with you! Anytime I cry (stupid emotions lol) she kicks & moves around like crazy. I def feel like she's telling me everything will work out in the end. Who knows, it could be a self fulfilling prophecy, but I'll take what I can get

But anywho, I hope you feel better soon!

It's good to know I am not the only one thinking that my baby is trying to comfort me. LOL

I was reading my blog post to my husband and couldn't stop hysterically crying and he just started moving around.

Ugh. here I go again. Stupid wednesdays.

Mine does it when I'm sad, but also when I get upset for any reason.

I had a customer at work that normally wouldn't have bothered me, but with all the hormones and other stress, got me seriously pissed off. LO started squirming and kicking and punching as if to say "hey, calm down, you're getting too worked up"

Definitely took me by surprise, and helped me snap myself out of the bad mindframe I was in.

I'm with you, sweetheart! I've been having a lot of "I give up" moments lately... I'm just too tired to do this, or that, and I'm just DONE. But then LO just starts wiggling around when I'm really upset/mad/crying, whatever... and it goes away again, because all her persistent wiggling around is distracting, and tends to make me smile and forget.

*hugs*

I thought I was alone in my pregnancy miserableness and depression...  Jacob doesn't exactly kick or anything when i'm upset yet, maybe in another week or so...   I have a hard time with my self image pre pregnancy and now that I'm up 16 lbs... my self image isn't getting any better.  It probably doesn't help that DH is deployed and wont be home til right after Jacob is born... 

 

Thanks for letting me vent...

I totally think like that Last week when i started my day by taking a hard fall on the ice...and we needed to be monitored...he kicked up a freaking storm as if to say..."Mommy thanks for saving me from whacking the pavement - I am totally fine in here don't worry about me!!!" 

After being monitored I figured I'd just stay home that afternoon and all Oliver did was kick kick kick!!! My body was sore but my mind was totally at ease b/c he was non-stop It was a huge relief!

If anyone is having a hard time with their emotions, moodiness or pregnancy depression I have started writing in my blog about it. I hope to make more women feel more comfortable and create a safe haven where they can talk about how they feel without feeling guilty for it.

 I am here for you and if you need I am only a pm away!!

Here is to our saving graces.........our LO's.
