Sounds like the title to a sci-fi suspense movie doesn't it? Quickening is the time when mother to be's feel the first movements. Today I have reached the 21 week mark and I have been feeling the movements for maybe 3 weeks. Many describe it as flutterings, or butterflies or little fish swimming. For me, initially it felt like a pulse in my abdomen, then it felt like trapped gas, now it feels like someone is in there moving around, pressing on me and some times, I can feel a lump from the outside! It is seriously the most interesting of feelings, especially for first timers. You get used to the frequency and know when the baby is sleeping or bouncing around. I wish I had a webcam of my womb! Most people say it feels like an alien is in there, but I don't have those feelings. Since the luvbaby hasn't given me any problems at all, I just feel like she is a part of my body. Oh by the way, its a girl!
