Baby Chronicles: Sugar rush

I discovered this morning, purely by accident, how I can get Leechie to move around so I can feel him/her. I stopped by Burger King on the way to work on the off chance that something, anything might sound good. I had already puked once this morning and was feeling pretty hungry. Generally, nothing fast food even sounds remotely good but Burger King has slurpees. Yum!

So, after about 1/2 of the Cherry Slurpee, I started to feel this mad gurggling in my tummy. It felt like someone had a straw and was blowing bubbles into a glass full of soda--but inside my belly. In addition to the mad gurggling, it was happening on one side, then the other, and back and forth in rapid succession. Either Leechie really liked the sugar rush or was really angry at me for bringing it about. Needless to say, it was really awesome but I don't think I'll be drinking any pure sugar anytime soon, just to be on the safe side.
