It's not fair!

I'm quite jealous, really. Not as a general rule, but at the moment I am... Nikki may look a bit like she's "swallowed a beach ball" (her phrasing, not mine...), but she gets to feel baby wriggling around and kicking.
I've decided - it's not fair. But it's life. And I guess I am getting away with rather a lot - I can't go through the same pain and discomfort that she is going through. I can feel the kicks sometimes if I put my hand on the bump, though, so at least that's something.
I think I saw somewhere that babies aren't supposed to kick just yet, but this one has been kicking for a few weeks! At least they're an early developer!
They (the baby) are already responding to our voices when we're reading stories, and certainly seems to love the warmth of the sunshine, as they do seem to wriggle around a lot more in the sun!
Nik's in some pain (and stairs are a particular problem), but apart from that, they're both well, which is good!
