So, now that we're feeling movement ...

My husband has felt the baby move a handful of times. I have the best luck getting positioned on my left side and then having my husband cup my belly. Seeing the movements are getting stronger I'm sure he will be able to feel them without me positioning myself.

After posting this my LO is being very stubborn and hasn't been moving much at all yesterday or this morning.

Trying not to worry as everyone says at 23 weeks this is pretty normal ... what movement I have felt has been little muscle like twitches. DARN IT

This happened to me last week. LO has been kicking pretty much all the time for the last 2 weeks then all of a sudden 2 days and nothing. The first day, I just figured I'm missing it, the second I got worried and tried everything I could think of to get him to move and nada. On the third day, I decided that I would call my OB if I felt nothing but the LO made up for his hibernation by keeping me up all night. Try not to worry, i think the movements are still supposed to be sporadic for a few more weeks.

DH felt one kick a few weeks ago, but the kicks have been pretty subtle lately. Last night in bed, though, the back of DH's hand was against my belly and LO kept kicking in that spot hard over and over again. DH was definitely feeling them. I wonder if LO was feeling the heat from DH's hand and objecting to it?
