dampscribbler | Baby likes to mess with me in the morning

I'm not sure what combination of food, drink, and sleep I managed in the past 24 hours, but it seems to have worked. I feel really good. I actually got 8 consecutive hours of sleep last night, something I don't expect to happen again for 6 months or so. I'm doing some housecleaning this morning, and hoping that I'm 'nesting.' Can nesting be forced? Maybe.

I'd been up a little over an hour when I decided I hadn't felt the baby move since 6am. I didn't worry. For about a minute. Then I did. So I drank my grapefruit juice. Lil' gal loves her grapefruit juice. Sure enough, in about 6 minutes (3 minutes too long for my taste, young lady) she started kicking and squirming.

Relief.

I hope posting about this doesn't draw the attention of the evil eye. I'm shockingly superstitious about these things, yet what's done is done.
