Hold Your Breath and Drink a Glass of Water...

K.Rae got her first bout of hiccups...or at least this was the first time I felt them! Last night after dinner, I settled on to the couch and felt this persistent little kick in my lower abdomen. It wasn't at all like her normal kicks (it was much softer) and it had a definite rhythm. I asked Al to put his ear to my belly to see if he heard anything out of the ordinary. He could hear what I felt, and a quick webmd search pointed us to hiccups. How cute is that!! They lasted for about 3 minutes. The fact that I felt them way down in my belly leads me to believe that she is definitely in the head-down position! Wooo hooo...that's a relief! I saw this lady on the Discovery channel who had to have her baby turned manually and it was not a pretty sight. I definitely wouldn't want to have to go through that.

Exactly two more months to go!! Have a great weekend!
