Kicks AND Spasms?

tstaggs2012

I've been able to feel my little guy kick for awhile now.. Since 18 weeks or a little before. So I know what a kick feels like because he gets me pretty hard sometimes.. Why do I get muscle spasm like feelings too? It usually happens when he's really really active.

I have never felt ever a spasm while feeling a  kick? Maybe ask your dr.

Does it feel like a vibration almost? Kinda like a twitching feeling in one spot? I get this tugging feeling/vibration almost like a spasm. It's always in the same spot though, and it's usually after a hard day when I lay down. Idk what it is either. I plan on asking my doctor.

I'm literally feeling this right now...as I type... It's just the way the baby feels when kicking. Almost like I get a foot (or arm) down low and an arm (or foot) up high by my rib. I think the baby is just flailing around in there.

Lower movements for me have always felt like pokes and higher movements have felt like muscle twitches (like when your eye twitches, but in the rib area)...I just associate that twitch feeling with the rib area...

I'm sure it's normal.

I only feel it around the right side of my ribs/hip too.. But I've been feeling kicks/punches all over, high and low.

Yeah I am assuming it is normal, because from what I have heard a lot of women experienced this. I googled it lol. But no one could say for sure what it was. I think that the previous poster may be right. I feel kicks high and low, but any movement around the rib area feels like a vibration more than anything else.
