Funny Hubby

So, I am getting far enough along in my pregnancy that I feel this little monster kick, move, poke, jab, roll, and all sorts of other things that feel crazy and leave me completely clueless as to what he's doing in there...all the time. Sometimes it's such an odd feeling or such a strong kick that of course my first instinct is..."oh my gosh, baby, you have got to feel this!" But Jeff's response, to me, is even crazier...it is one of hesitation. Now I'm sure anyone would agree with me in thinking that a soon-to-be dad would be anxious to feel his little baby kick (or whatever it is that he's doing:) but not my hubby...he's scared, lol. The few times that I've happened to be laying aside him to put his hand on my belly in time for a kick, he's gotten freaked out and pulled his hand back. Now don't get me wrong, he also smiles and seems excited, but definitely freaked is a word to describe him too. This, of course, is very humorous to me. I tell him..."it's YOUR baby, it's not like it's a stranger," but he is still very hesitant when it comes to feeling the baby move. I guess I'll just have to settle with having Colten all to myself for the time being, which is fine with me:)

  3. Matt was not too interested in feeling our babies "kick, punch, roll, etc." either, at least not after the 100th time I put his hand on my belly, ha ha. It is a wonderful, exciting thing though. Enjoy it! Before you know it he will be in your arms and spitting up and pooping all over you!!!
