around 5 a.m. in the morning last monday, i was startled awake by a loud clap of thunder. i wasn't afraid, i'm too old for such things.
however, my little one was not.
she started moving around vigourously. it didn't strike me that it was because of the thunder till the second loud clap came along. i thought it was kind of cute and i woke KH up. it was our very first attempt and trying to calm the little one. i think i'm kind of lousy at that, cos the most i did was just rub my bump and tried to say something so that she could calm down from the tone of my voice. KH was even worse, asking him to say something usually has the opposite effect. all he could do was rub my bump more vigourously and utter one worded phrases.
i read one from one of the numerous phamplets i received that around the 7th month, babies may respond to touch and may even jump in reaction to loud noises. how impeccable.
anyways, many more "firsts" to come. can't wait :)

I had a good laugh reading about KH's part...can imagine the scenario...hahaha
kekeke... u should try it too. ask him to say something to the child and see him do his silly smile instead. so cute.
think he's trying too hard. keeping the fingers crossed that when child is out, his paternal instincts will take over. and hopefully so will mine :)
