this may sound strange to some people, hell it sounds strange to me as a type it!

today at work. (i worked the crazy shift 4am-10:30am...in the deli at safeways/woolies) and at about 9:30-10ish i felt this...streching feeling around my lower abdomen...like around where blip is. now im just assumeing that its normal movement and streching of mucles, and this is my first bub so i have NO IDEA if its normal or if i felt it more becuase i'd been on my feet 6 hours and 15mins or what, it didnt hurt at all. it more felt like a strech when you strech out say your legs before going for a jog. now i know around now i "pop" and i get my muchly long awaited "bump" but as any one else felt it riseing out like i have? or think i have? or should i be calling my doc and seeing what he says, becuase NONE of my books mention it...and my google-fru isnt the best (maybe due to me being up for almost 12 hours strait...)

and at 17 weeks is it normal to like go to bend down and tie up your shoes and find "wait a second...I HAVE A LITTLE BUMP IN THE WAY?!?!" as i have been then telling the ladies i work with ALL about it.

Ohh and last question two questions;
1) i *think* i felt movement. it was like i was being tickled from the inside...that was about 3 days ago and i havent felt it since...and if this is TMI but i DIDNT fart afterwoulds....
2)....i just drew a blank...i cant rember...blips eaten my brain again!
