There's a party in my belly

Felt the kid moving around, looked down, and could actually SEE the movements from the outside!

Totally my favorite part of being pregnant :-)

Re: There's a party in my belly

  • I love, love, love seeing my stomach move around.  I think that this little girl gets some full body motion going on sometimes!

  • Awesome! My girl's kicks have been so strong lately I keep checking to see if I can see it from the outside but not yet

  • Yes! I've been feeling movement for six. Weeks and have been able to see her moving for 4. Its awesome! Every morning we lay in bed and watch her dancing away. I could watch my belly for hours :)
  • Last week I started just tuning out of meetings I was in and watching my belly jump around. She's way more entertaining than the BS these meetings are about...
  • Yes! I love seeing LO move! And DH got to see him yesterday for the first time, I think it freaked him out a bit lol Scares me a little that he's kicking so hard sometimes and he still has a lot of growing to do!!! :-O

  • Kicks pokes and movement have been getting so much stronger recently! I just sit with my hand on my belly and smile! I have only seen my belly jump a couple of times. It's an awesome thing!

  • I'm loving it!  And I had to wait For-freaking-Ever this time too because of the anterior placenta.

    It's so fun!

  • This happened to me on Saturday! DH got a huge kick out of it as well (pun slightly intended).

  • Yes! I swear she was doing Zumba in there last night. I was kicked in 2 places at once for the first time last night. We noticed you could see the kicks a few days ago. Pretty cool!

  • I feel bad because -I- can feel the WeeNut, but DH hasn't felt a thing yet.  He's tried, but I think he's not patient enough, and I do wonder how much the anterior placenta 'blocks' movements from his hands.

    That and, this child goes batshit-banana-bonkers in the afternoon (when I'm at work) and in the middle of the night when he's asleep. 

    That and, today marks week 24, so, perhaps it's still just too early for HIM to feel anything?

    That's what I tell him, because I think he's unhappy he can't feel anything.  A few times he's waited and waited and kind of sadly said "I don't think WeeNut likes me."  Honestly, that makes me feel guilty and sad (don't ask me why) for him.

    As soon as I was lying down with the Hypnobabies rainbow relaxation CD on last night, our little Ducky decided it was time for kickboxing and I got some of the strongest kicks I had all weekend.  Needless to say, the relaxing thing took a backseat to the party in my tummy.

    My baby kicked my laptop yesterday, and it jumped. It was so cool. Then DH came over to feel, and of course, after a few min, declared the baby hated him. :( Freeze tag sucks. Poor guy. :(
    I can't see movement yet from the outside, but this totally happens when I feel it... She's kicking strong, I call my husband over, and she immediately stops.

  • My little girl rolled across my belly last night while the fiancé was watching. Freaked him out. He was like, OMG What the f*ck was that?!?! It's the alien living inside of me getting ready to bust out of my belly button tonight to kill you in your sleep. What the hell do you think it is, dumbass! Lol

    My Dr. likened it to punching through a sponge.  He said that's why DH can't feel anything.  He's felt our little guy once or twice, but every time I think it's a hard kick (because I am feeling a LOT more now), DH still has no idea.  I still am not feeling baby consistently, and Dr. assures me it's the placenta getting in the way.  It's still tough to read about everyone having dance parties...I'm finally starting to get 1-minute ragers once in awhile, but I'll take it!
  • I love this part!

    Kiddo kicked a book that I was resting on my belly.  
    When I'm giving DD a bottle, the baby will start moving around a lot because it's being squished.  The sibling pushing and poking is already starting.

  • The woman giving my pedicure was the first to notice my belly bounce from the outside. At first I thought it was just the massage chair-but it wasn't !

  • I notice the most movement when I have something like my iPad sitting on my stomach. He must not like the feeling because everytime he starts kicking it in protest! I actually felt movement on both sides this weekend. He is still breech though so most of the kicks are down low.

  • Try and take some videos! It's hard to catch in time, usually. I love the videos I was able to take of DD doing some waves but I think I was about 30ish weeks at the time.

    The title totally made me think of this. Google the party in my tummy song on Yo Gabba Gabba. You'll never get it out of your head lol. 

    Edited because I tried to post a GIF for the first time and failed! 


    Every time I see this thread that song is all I can think about!
    Ahhh! I can't stop singing it! So yummy so yummy! Lol! I wish I couldn't gotten the gif to work :(
  • I was spooning my DH and he felt baby kick him in the back through my belly :)
  • I've only seen my belly move from the outside a couple of times, and DH hasn't been able to feel movement yet. It's the same freeze tag thing - she'll be moving like crazy (I call it shenanigans) and then go completely still when DH touches my belly.
