Baby's going to kick THRU my stomach, I swear.

Whitney DD · January 2011

She has started this new habit of waking up around 7am and STRETCHING. I feel like her movements are bigger and stronger than ever, obviously because she's bigger and stronger... haha. And no kicks, but she sure fully extends her limbs!

Anyone else feel like baby's foot is going to come right through your stomach?

I hear you! I feel that all the time. No more subtle movements, it all stretching and rolling! Its as if she's trying to make my stomach even bigger than it is because she doesn't have as much room in there! : )

Same here! It was so bad last night, and I was so stretched out in one location just above and to the right of my belly button, that I actually tried the flashlight trick -- I shined a bright flashlight on my stomach in that area, and sure enough, LO shifted his position, giving me some relief! Might be worth a try for you.

I too hear you! Mine is also stretching with some kicks to the ribs which hurt most all the time now! Over the past couple of weeks it feels as if s/he is trying to push my heart, lungs out through my throat then follow them out that way! While the head is going for the other end! Ha-ha!

I will have to try that flashlight trick. Last night I thought LO was trying to escape through my belly button, and at the same time he was headbutting my bladder and kicking my ribs. And his little butt was pushing waaaayy out on the right side of my belly. Awesome.

Yes, my baby stretches all the time. I think she is doing yoga in there! My belly button, bladder and cervix take the most hits.

I was just commenting to DH this morning that it looks like I am in need of an exorcsism cause Riley stretches and his one knee pokes almost straight out over 2 inches above the rest of my belly. That's no small feat! I wish he did it only once a day. It is happening almost every two to three hours with his wake cycles.
