Alien Baby

You know that scene in Alien where the dude that had the big claw thing stuck on his face is seemingly back to his old self. He's sitting around with his buddies, minding his own business, eating his breakfast. When all of a sudden, BAM! A major case of indigestion!


As they lay him across the table, you see this bump moving around in his stomach just under the surface of his skin. Next thing you know a gross, little baby alien busts through, takes a good look at all these pesky humans standing around him before he bolts across the table and disappears to God knows where. ::sigh:: Love that movie...

Well, I just experienced a close approximation of that. Minus all the screaming, convulsing, and blood and stuff, of course.

The babies were kicking, and they've gotten strong enough where they can easily be felt from the outside of my belly now - even through layers of clothes. I happened to lay my hand across the top of my bump and a second later I felt it! Some limb or a head or a butt or something pushed out so I could feel it under my fingertips. The bump then proceeded to stay pushed out while it traveled across the top of my belly! I could feel it moving from my fingertips, across the palm of my hand, and down past my wrist. One of these little guys was having a nice, long stretch in there. And I could feel the whole thing.

It. Was. Freaky! But in the most exciting way possible.

I can't wait for it to happen again. And I can't wait until Greg can catch it too. These babies are getting so big & strong! Grow, babies, grow!
