Turn on the radio and sway to the music. With her sense of movement well developed by now, your baby can feel you dance. And now that she's more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound (about as much as a large mango), you may be able to see her squirm underneath your clothes. Blood vessels in her lungs are developing to prepare for breathing, and the sounds that your baby's increasingly keen ears pick up are preparing her for entry into the outside world. Loud noises that become familiar now — such as your dog barking or the roar of the vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze her when she hears them outside the womb.
For the record - no - I have not been able to see him squirm under my clothes. In fact, the kid hardly moves at all. :-/ Every once in a while, but not tons. Good to know that Giant's barking wont affect him though.

FYI, I love this blog.
Thanks. I was just re-reading the baby-center stuff - maybe i should vacuum, since it said that the baby would be accustom to that if i do it. who am i kidding. i'm not going to vacuum after the kid is born either.
