A goldfish in a bag of water

Remember going to a school fair and throwing a ping-pong ball into one of the bowls where a goldfish is swimming? If you got a ping-pong ball in the bowl, your prize was to take the goldfish home in a bag of water?

Well, people were asking me if I have felt the baby move yet. There were times when I thought I felt it move, but wasn't sure. Then, I was reading some other women's experiences on what it felt like the first time they felt their babies move, and one woman described it as a goldfish in a bag of water. That's exactly what it feels like to me. So I wasn't crazy. I have been feeling those tiny movements for a few weeks now. The baby is pretty active. I feel it moving all the time. Matt is very anxious to feel it, but the baby isn't big enough to give him a friendly high five yet.
