@allthingsgo you think it's them feeling around?! I don't know why that sounds so crazy to me, but I get the same sensation, especially when I'm on my left side. It's not a kick/punch, or even just squirm so that actually makes a lot of sense even if it sounds slightly creepy to me...
Finally experienced my first set of hiccups! He was kicking me in the stomach at the same time as feeling hiccups right at the bottom of my belly so he must be head down right now.
Also today I was able to record his kicks on my phone. They were so big and completely noticeable!
Baby was having a dance party all through my morning classes - usually he sleeps while I'm teaching (probably because I am so active/on my feet) so it was really distracting, but I'm not complaining!
I will never get used to the odd shape my bump gets into after a chiro adjustment. When I flip from face down to laying on my back my bump is always really pointy and then I can watch LO squirm around to get repositioned. It is SO weird.
My baby has had some intense hiccups multiple times in the past week! (I’m 27 weeks 3 days)... I love feeling the rhythmic pulsing of her hiccups, and I always make my wife feel it, too — sometimes they’re more externally visibility / “feel-able”, and sometimes I can feel it more internally, I think it depends on baby’s position in my uterus. Several times a day her movements are so big (perhaps a full body twist or roll?) I literally shout out loud! Good thing I work with children and families so they all understand when I’m holding my belly or making a little funny face, reacting to my baby’s jostling / moving / dance parties! It’s so fun hearing about everyone else’s experiences of their baby’s movements. Only recently I’ve been able to feel a hard lump and guess that it is a foot or a limb. Can any of you definitively tell which body part is which already? Can you visibly SEE shapes of body parts already?
@beachmamasf I’m almost 30 weeks, but I have no idea what body part is hitting me ever. I can’t wait until I know for sure and can actually mean it when I say he is kicking me.
@beachmamasf You'll likely feel a butt jutting out eventually. To me with DD it was unmistakable little booty that fits in your hand. The last couple of weeks was feet/legs stretching into my ribs.
Ugh this little turkey was quiet yesterday. Back to normal this morning. Feels like there's like a good sleeping and growing day once every few weeks.
Baby has been kind of quiet over here, too...I feel him occasionally so I try not to worry but I wish he’d move a little more! Maybe he’s doing a sleep-growth thing like @madreofdragons suggested
@eggsandwich2019 Mine was super chill on Thursday and Friday last week, and then was pretty active on Sunday/Monday. Today it's back to baseline. I think it's starting to get to the point where they're hitting growth spurts, plus they're starting to run out of room to move a ton which makes their movements a bit smaller and harder to notice. It's hard not to worry, though!
LO has been right under my rib cage today. Not loving that spot for him. Hoping he will move positions soon. He’s been very active today, which is exciting because we are going for an ultrasound that we are paying for tonight and I can’t wait to see how he has changed. Hopefully he keeps his hands out of his face!
@hannahbananas11 definitely noticing that he doesn’t have as much space in there anymore. I rarely feel kicks and punches like I used to, instead they’ve been replaced by the pressure of a head or butt sticking out, and legs and arms gliding around. I can tell he’s stronger than he was just a few weeks ago too! So weird.

I'm getting tons of the alien movements as she rolls back and forth. My kids were totally freaking out last night with how much she switched positions! The newest thing is that she is now kicking all the way over on my right side. Lower than the rib cage and level with my belly button. How LONG is this kid??
So active little man decided to put his foot on his forehead and put both of his hands in front of his face for the ultrasound. He also was no where near as active as he was this morning. Thankfully we did get a few good face shots!
This afternoon I visited my 96 year old grandmother (baby is named after her). I started some music on my phone and put it on my belly for her to watch, and luckily baby obliged. She had that thing bouncing like the toaster in Ghostbusters 2.
A week of waiting and I officially passed my glucose test despite the online results being abnormal! Little guy has made his home on my righr side by my ribs. He kicks alot and it kinds hurts. He waa quiet for a few days but today he is awake and playing my ribs. Ow.
One baby is breech and keeps sticking her ass up so one side of my belly goes high and the other side is low. Weirdest feeling ever. It actually takes my breath away, almost gives me a butterfly feeling? If that makes sense.
@cali1710 I get that same feeling when this one moves in certain ways. So weird. My boys were both breech. One used his head to beat up my right lung. The other used my bladder as a trampoline and thought it was cool to make my left leg go numb randomly.
Definitely feeling hiccups right now! I thought I felt it a couple weeks ago but I'm not sure if it was the real deal, I know for sure it is this time though. So weird!

After spending a good two weeks or so distinctly on my right side, baby has just shifted over to the centre left. And appears to also have the hiccups! It's a fun morning.
Does anyone else lose their breath and feel a strange pressure in their chest right before a movement? I am able to almost predict baby movements now before I can feel them. Is this weird?
@bhou nope i get that too. Weird feeling. I don’t enjoy it.
Ive been getting a lot of knee or foot jabs today. Last night one of the babies tried repositioning or something and one side went super low and the other went super high. It was really freaky looking
