Hiccups?!?!

Well today was supposed to be my first appointment with my new doctor. Unfortunately the appt was cancelled because Dr. was sick. They have rescheduled me for Thursday of this week. Would have been nice to get to hear Sylvia's heartbeat today, but I will just have to wait a few more days.

I have finally discovered what this strange "kicking" I have been feeling alot lately is...Sylvia is a hiccupping little girl! She seems to get them quite frequently. It feels like she is drumming on the inside of my belly, or perhaps like popcorn popping against my belly. I decided to look this up and also asked a coworker, and everything points to hiccups. (I will of course talk to my doctor to be sure what I have been told and what I have read is correct...) But it makes sense and it makes me smile. It means she is practicing breathing, which is a good sign. :)

(p.s Tried to post this yesterday, on Monday but blogger wasn't cooperating...)
