2nd Trimester

Do you feel stronger kicks in certain spots?

Baby's kicks arent as strong in the last 2ish days and I wonder if its becuase he/she has moved and is kicking something else that I dont feel as much? (If this makes sense)

Just wondering if anyone has noticed a change in the strength of the kicks.  I am a little nervous Tongue Tied

Re: Do you feel stronger kicks in certain spots?

  • Your baby is moving around a lot. You're only 21 weeks, no need to be nervous.

  • Thank you- it just seems to have slowed a little bit these past few days. I have multiple friends who have lost their babies well past 20 weeks and in all cases they didnt feel movement for a few days before they found out.

    I love the kicks but wish they were as strong as they were earlier in the week!

    It's okay. The baby will go through phases and different positions. So baby could just be kicking towards the back or in a spot you don't feel it as much. Losing a baby past 20 is extremely rare. Stay calm and do some deep breathing. I find that when I do relaxation techniques the baby gets more active b/c the breathing helps my uterus to relax (i.e. more room for baby!)

  • Haha thanks! Yea thats all I wanted to hear is that its probably just kicking a spot I dont feel as strongly as say, my bladder!

    Normally like 30-60 minutes after a meal it goes crazy!

  • I always feel the strongest kicks on the right side of my belly button area or in my lower left abdomen. Last night I even felt my little guy shift position across the top of my belly...one minute I had kicks on the right, the next minute they were on the left!

  • I'm 22 weeks, and I notice this all the time. Like today and last week, I didn't feel anything, but lastnight it was pretty much like a stampede throughout my stomach, lol. Don't worry too much.

     You don't have to start couting kicks until 28 weeks.

  • I usually feel the most kicking on the right side of my belly.  I wouldn't worry about it though because some babies are more active at odd times.  Maybe you're baby is moving around more when you're sleeping and you don't feel it.
