It&#8217;s amazing to feel them move and squirm from time to time &#8212; especially when you can feel something recognizable like a foot, hand or a knee.<\/p>\n<p>Food Craving: Chinese food and Mexican food.<\/p>\n<p>Labor Signs: We haven&#8217;t worked out our signals yet&#8230; but I&#8217;m keeping my phone near me at all times just in case.
