Last night my son was pretending to be superman. How do I know this? Well, I was laying on my left side getting ready to go to sleep. I felt a quick flutter and then two bumps - a very forceful bump on the lower quadrant of my stomach (thankfully not my bladder AGAIN) and one on the opposite upper quadrant of my stomach. It was as it he had his feet down on the bottom and stretched his arms above his head and then jumped! so that he would shoot the short (probably not much longer than he actually his) distance from one side to the other.
Of course, this is seriously distracting from my ability to sleep.
So I called in reinforcements.
I got out of bed, walked to the top of the stairs and called down to where B was watching cartoons in the living room.
"Honey, your son it trying to be superman in my stomach! I need you to come up here and tell him to go to bed."
At first, I got a laugh, and then an assurance that my back up was on it's way. I settled back down into my spot and B came to sooth the savage beast in my tummy. After some petting and chatter, DJ settled down and seemed to go to sleep too. Didn't hear much of a peep from him during the night, so I think B did his job well.
