baby movements

I will be 21 weeks tomorrow. I am feeling like the movements are def getting stronger, but in addition, they are getting weirder feeling too.

Am I the only one that thinks it feels very strange? Like really strong muscle twitches? And lately it feels like he is kicking or hitting my bladder. I will get up to go to the bathroom and by the time I finish, wash my hands and get down the hallway, I have to go back. This just happened, and when I got back to my desk I had to go for a third time Chat Icon

But seriously..the movements are unlike anything I thought they would feel like. I keep feeling like I have to tighten my muscles down there other wise a little foot or hand is going to pop out or something Chat Icon

I could have written your post myself. I didn't think kicks would feel like this either. But it's exactly like you described - it feels like a muscle spasming out. I had one day when my DS must have just decided to sit right on my bladder. I couldn't take a sip of anything without heading straight to the bathroom to pee. And the low kicks/punches/movements - I completely understand what you mean. I said to DH one day that depending on where he's laying, sometimes I don't know if its him kicking me or if I have to fart Chat Icon because the sensation is like "right there" Chat Icon

I can't wait for the hiccups to start though!! I also can't wait for DH to be able to feel him moving. I can tell he's getting frustrated b/c the movements feel so strong to me but DH can't feel them yet.

My DH swears he felt him moving but I think it was wishful thinking on his part! Chat Icon Soon enough though I am sure he will be able to SEE him moving! Chat Icon

I'm 22 weeks today and I am so Chat Icon every time I feel the baby. When I feel her on the side of my belly, it feels like nudges - like she's stretching her legs/arms out. When I feel them in the middle of my belly or low, it feels like my stomach drops as if I'm on a rollercoaster or elevator. the weirdest feeling!

I swear that the baby is playing with DH. When she is very active, i grab DH's hand and put it on my belly and she immediately stops. Chat Icon

today I was at work and had a big thump from her. I waited a bit and gently pressed my belly where the movement came from and a few second later it happened again! I did it one more time and she "answered" but then I think she got fed up with being bothered Chat Icon

Re: baby movements

I thought the kicks were strong then but just wait. I am 33 weeks and I think he might kick his way out through my stomach

I literally just said this to my DH. I was sitting at my desk with my hand on my stomach and he kicked in just the right spot that it made my hand pop off my belly Chat Icon and then I thought- I cannot imagine what he will be doing as he gets bigger. He is just a little peanut right now
