Question for Catholic moms.

So, this may be a weird question. When I was pregnant with daughter, she would always kick and flipflop during mass at transubstantiation, and then again when I took communion. I told a couple of people about it, and they thought I was exaggerating or making it up, but it really happened every time! It was really really cool to me!!
This baby, not really yet. He/she kicked a little when I took communion a couple of weeks ago, and that has been all so far.
So, I was just curious if anyone else has had anything similar happen?

    With DS he kicked randomly throughout the day.  This LO is quite active as well, but similarly all over the place (time/day).

    Cool! Yeah, both mine have been pretty active as well, at random times ( although things like Popsicles or frozen yogurt tend to always jolt them into action ;). ).

    To clarify, I was just curious if anyone had had baby kick/move around in conjunction with the Eucharist. I know some people will think I'm a religious weirdo, but I'm ok with that.

    Yes, I'm Catholic and should have specified that I didn't necessarily feel the kicking in conjunction with a particular part of Mass.  I probably should have been a bit more explicit in my answer.

    That is so cool!! I've only felt very small sporadic movements so far that don't seem to be connected with anything.  

    But I know that sometimes I feel my own heart quicken at the time of transubstantiation during the mass-- maybe baby can sense your excitement somehow at that time and he or she starts wiggling around!  :)

    That is so awesome! Sometimes when I took communion with my son he jumped around. I always thought that he is getting a blessing and he was excited about it! It hasn't happened with this little guy yet, but I would hope he gets excited about getting a blessing like his brother!

    Can't say I ever noticed it during communion specifically.  But I always noticed a lot of bouncing during church, I always thought it was because of the organ, like maybe the really loud, low notes were sending some cool vibrations through me or something!  And I have a habit of wiggling my toes when the bells ring while the host is being prepared, so I always thought it was funny that we were secretly wiggling at the same time.
