Does your belly entertain you and DH?

After we put our boys to bed at night, I usually lay on the couch while DH and I watch TV.  This is one of many times during the day my LO likes to be super active.  DH and I usually find ourselves watching my belly ripple and wave more than we watch the TV.  It's just so entertaining :)  We did this with our first two kiddos too.  Maybe we're just weird.  Do you and your spouse like watching your belly too???

Re: Does your belly entertain you and DH?

  • We do this a lot too!  We were just talking the other day about how its a good thing when the belly movement stops we'll have a baby to stare at instead!  Otherwise we'd be pretty bored without our nightly entertainment!
    Baby #3 is on the way!

  • I do! Especially when she's really spazzing in there. But for some reason whenever I tell DH to look, she stops. And he doesn't have much of an attention span for waiting for her to start up again.

  • We do the same thing!! We love it!  Sometimes DH even talks to my belly and asks her what she's doing in there. It's really adorable
  • Yes, we do this a lot too. We try to watch TV, but end up watching my belly instead. Its highly entertaining. Smile
  • Yep, all the time! The other night was hilarious - no idea what that little bean was doing in there, but it sure made us laugh!
  • Are you kidding?! This is what makes every day feel like a great one to us!!

    We both look forward to this every day ... truly.

    We turn the 11 o'clock news on and listen ... I don't say watch because we're only LISTENING to the TV and watching my belly. The more active he gets and more aggressive he is ... the more my husband can't wait for him to be here to hold and play with. Me too but I spend all day feeling him bump and turn and kick. My husband only gets the moments at night when he's active.

    So no ... you're not weird ... I'd say your VERY normal. Big Smile

  • Every night!!  He's more entertaining some nights than others :) 
  • I love watching my belly move and squirm..However SO doesnt really like it.. He is too weirded put by the movement. I think his thoughts were corrupted by Alien and thinks she'll burst out.

    This!!  Our baby does the same thing when I tell my husband to feel my belly for movement.  Whenever I get him to touch or to watch, baby decides to stop moving!  But when I am at work, it's movin and jumpin around, I love watching it, it almost "tickles" from the inside and makes me giggle!!

  • My LO is also incredibly active.. DH likes to put his iphone on my belly, and she's looked like she's "head banging" to it because she will wiggle and make the phone jump
