2nd pregnancy but have a rough toddler.

Hey moms, I have a few questions about being pregnant with a toddler. My little girl is about to be 2 in April and she has this bad habit of trying to hit me in my stomach or kicking me in my stomach every chance she gets. Can this be dangerous for the unborn baby?

This is probably a good question for your doctor. I’d say for your 1st trip baby is pretty well protected. I wouldn’t imagine it would hurt the baby, but would certainly be uncomfortable for you as your belly gets bigger and harder.

Hi there fellow April 2016 momma! I “literally” feel your pain! I think it’s that tantrum age because DS tries to kick when i pick him up. I’ve started to modify how i carry him if he’s kicking so he’s only kicking air. I’ve had a few kicks and hits but nothing too concerning. If you get a real good one please check in with your doctor but babies are pretty insulted in there especially early on.
