From flutter to flying kicks

At 20-21 weeks, my baby peanut's fluttering movements became powerful kicks...as if she was responding to our touch, songs & music or our voices when we talked to her. They were not exactly comfortable but my husband & I felt so thrilled to see her move & able to touch her.

I found it more comfortable to sleep on my side (now that my baby peanut had grown into a size of a banana or carrot) with a soft pillow between my legs. I never had leg edema, but I did feel some heaviness in my legs, so before I sleep & after a prolonged standing position, I put my legs up against the wall or over a 3- or 4-pillow- high elevation.
