the quickening

quickening

“The Quickening” sounds like a horror movie, but what it means is the time when a woman starts to feel the movements of the baby inside her. It really is the coolest thing. Smokey kicks me, or flips over, I’m not exactly sure what he’s doing, but it feels like he’s communicating with me. Telling me he’s there, saying hi. Or just working on his movements, practicing, learning about his limbs.
