Month 5 – Mommy felt me kick today!
Your spiritually adopted baby weighs over one pound now and is 10 inches long. His mother can feel his movement. Before this time, he was too small for her to feel. Although he swam with ease in his watery world, he needed to be big and strong enough to kick hard against the outside wall and dent it – the inside wall of the uterus has little feeling. We are midway through the pregnancy now. Your prayers have helped your baby’s mother continue with her pregnancy and seek the help she needs.
“Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things.” Ecclesiastes 11:5
