feeling 1st kick ( Charles) (requested)

(bonus 2)

----------------

The amazement of learning your expecting is amazing. and then as your pregnancy goes on the feeling of them moving makes your day.

 and being able to experince with a loved one makes it so much better.

Now all I am waiting for is mine and Charle's baby to kick for the first time and hopefully when they do Charles will be right here with me to experince it.

Every waking day I would place my hand on my stomach in hope of feeling a kick but so far nothing. 

But I feel as though that soon will change.

~~~

I was sitting in the stands watching as Charles was jousting when I finally felt it. I was shocked at first then I felt it again and I couldn't wipe the smile from my face. 

I started focusing more on feeling kicks than my husband's jousting. 

"What is it, love?" 

Not saying a word I grab Charles's hand remove his glove and place it on my stomach our little one is kicking.

We both look up at each other and he smiles.

"Did they?" he asked

"Uh-huh" I replied

He beams with pride before removing his other glove as he joins me in the stands and places both hands on my stomach moving around every so often to see if our baby will kick where his hands are placed. 

I chuckled as I watch him in excitement grinning broadly.

"It's one of the things I never felt when Margret and Cathrine was pregnant but I very glad that I  can experince this with you," he says

"I am thrilled to be able to experience our baby's first kick with you," I tell him

 He looks up at me for a brief moment before looking back at my stomach and moves his hand around waiting for more kicks.

"I think they are napping," I tell Charles

He starts pouting and I laugh a little.

"I want to feel more," he says

"I know and I promise when you're around me and they start back up I will reach for your hand or call for you" I assured him

 He lets my stomach go and helps me up before grabbing his gloves as we leave after bowing to the king who dismisses us.

On our journey home Charles has his hand under my stomach as if he is supporting it. and I leave him be known just how much excitement our baby kicking makes him feel and I know he doesn't want to miss out anymore.

When our baby still hasn't kicked Charles pouts and I wrap my arm around him as we walk in the house.

"Let's go and take a warm bath maybe they'll wake up and start kicking. or who knows they will start before we go to sleep" I tell him

"Do you really think so?" he asked

"Doesn't hurt to try the bath then if that doesn't work wait till we turn in and see" I replied

"Alright let's do that," he says

I agree with him and we head off to our bed chambers where we had as one of our helpers to have a bath ready and waiting for us.

 We get in the tub and wait a bit but our baby doesn't kick so we clean ourselves up and get dressed.

Once we are in bed ready to turn in our little one starts to kick

"Charles," I say

"Yea?" he asked

"They're kicking," I say

 tosses his book and plants his hands on my stomach and smiles as he feels the kicks.
