How would you describe it??

Gators&BoSox · May 2015

So last night we were sitting on the couch when our little guy started kicking and going bananas. After a few minutes of DH feeling him going ape shit he asked me what it felt like. I tried very hard to compare it to something that would make sense to him. I said it felt like shoving a dum dum pop into the inside of your cheek and rolling it around with a decent amount of force. Except sometimes you get kicked in the bladder. LOL I don't know how else to compare it. Anyone have a better description?!

For me it feels kinda like a muscle twitch. Like when my thigh is being weird.
Or just really high gas bubbles.

Yeah, I agree. To me it feels like a muscle twitch.

It's so hard to describe. It felt like a muscle twitch in the beginning, but at almost 31 weeks it's much stronger!

Muscle twitch! It's involuntary and kinda jerky. And occasionally hurts.

mrsrfwii · May 2015

Yep, I agree with the muscle twitch. I'm 28 weeks and it is mostly random kicks and punches. There are times where it feels more like a "roll" and not just a kick, kinda like they way you described it, but for me that's not often.

I agree with @mrsfwii, it feels like jabs and kicks and occasionally full rolls. The rolls are the hardest for me to describe.

The other day my husband and I were snuggling in bed face-to-face, and he felt her kicks on his stomach. He's felt her a million times with his hand, but something about feeling it on his stomach like I do made him so excited! It was adorable!

Have you ever gone fishing and caught something? To me, it feels kind of like a fish in your belly. Baby feels surprisingly strong with recent movements.

Does anybody else feel like their baby kicks hurt? Or am I just a wuss?

Hiccups feel like a twitching muscle. Kicks feel like someone jabbing you sharply in the sides with a finger. Rolls feel a bit like your stomach turning - makes me feel a bit nauseous. Sometimes movement feels like wind or a poo travelling through your intestines. That's the best I can do!

Sometimes, depends on where she kicks. Kicks to my bladder hurt.

@pabeybaby My baby's kicks hurt. Every now and then I get a limb shoved into my ribs or pelvis. Ouch!

Sometimes it feels like a house cat trapped inside of a bag. I think my lollypop in the cheek days are over. She likes to go crazy in there.

I think it's just like someone flicking a finger against inside of my stomach that just keeps getting stronger every day. The rolls feel like gas that passes quite quickly. I love it all, even the part where I don't need a wee until I suddenly get a punch in the bladder and then need to run to the toilet.

Feels like big salmon is swimming/ flipping in my belly:)

sjra1028 · May 2015

@Lizover23 I agree!!!
My lil girl has the strongest kicks lately. It looks like a scene from "Alien." When I was being hooked up to monitors the other day, she kicked the nurses hand and she dropped the fetal monitor. Lol

@pabeybaby ..For me, the kicks are strong and can be pretty uncomfortable, but I wouldn't necessarily say they "hurt" quite yet.
