Ok, so it's almost 11:30 pm. Today was my first day back to work after a nice, long Christmas vacation. I should be asleep!! I didn't feel the babies move much today, which is very unusual. Needless to say, I was a little paranoid tonight. They've been so active lately otherwise!
Anyway, I decided to try the usual remedy to wake them up. So I ate not one, but two spoonfuls of peanut butter and drank some OJ---which, by the way do NOT go together well, but it's what's recommended for this little experiment. Protein & sugar are supposed to get them going.
20 minutes went by and still, no movement. I was getting so frustrated!!! Then, all of the sudden the party began. They're kicking & rolling all over the place now!! Matt tried to stay up with me at first, but he just fell asleep. I hate to wake him now, so I thought I'd post my excitement here instead. I'm such a worry wart!!
Anyway, I just thought I'd share. Hope all of you are getting your "Kicks" out of reading this as well. Have a good night!

Sounds like if there's any kicking going on - it should be you kicking butt on someone who didn't stay up with you!

Hi Holle! It's so great to hear that you and Matt and the twins are doing so well. I have had plenty of nights/days when I got nervous about not feeling our little Tadpole kick. A little protein and a little sugar definitely gets the "kick and swim" going. We are less than 3 weeks away from our due date...and you will be there before you know it! Enjoy, Holle!!!
:) Katrina
