Am I allowed to feel my baby's position.

I had a small pain in my tummy today for a while. I started to massage it with my fingers and realised it was possibly a foot sticking out the side of my belly. Gave me a shock when she kicked me really hard. Hehe. Is it ok for me to poke around to feel her? Or am I not supposed too? I'm not doing it hard. Just lightly pushing my fingers to see if I can feel her again.

I mean you can...it doesn't hurt her.

I do this all the time! I would think it's fine as long as you're not pushing hard.

sure. your baby is really well protected in there. I poke and wake her up and make her kick all the time.

I poke my kid all the time, especially when he is up in my ribs and I can't breath.

I do it all the time. I tap or press on his butt (he's butt up so it's at the top of my belly) and he squirms, I love it. My husband always tells me to stop bothering him but we're playing! It's stimulating for them and you can't hurt them that way, they're well protected.
