Waking up Thursday Morning | makingbabycoutts's Blog

The first time I woke up I felt the bed moving. It felt like someone was lightly bumping it. For a moment I wondered if it was some kinda aftershock or something. It had a regular pattern to it. I wondered if it was him so I reached out and felt him.

It was his heart. I looked over and could see his entire torso thump with each heartbeat. I have never seen anything like that before. I've seen peoples hearts beating of course but never strong enough for me to feel it through the bed.

I tried to go back to sleep, though the bed thumping was distracting. Just then I heard Doodles fussing from the nursery.
