  Could she be trying to poop or pass gas? Mine does that when she's trying to.
  
  or maybe she's just excited about this new skill lol

  I agree with the gas. Mine kicks a lot when he has gas and so did DD. Draws the knees up to his chest and then kicks them down hard over and over. Getting the gas out helps (bicycle the legs, push his knees into his chest, push one knee and opposite elbow together, etc.).

  Me: 38, DH: 35

  Mine has done this for awhile now. I think he just likes the noise it makes

  My 4 month has been doing this for a few weeks. She sleeps in a sleeping bag/gro bag so she is like a whale. I was worried she might hurt herself & think we should have got a sturdier cot! I think it is just a new skill as she has just started rolling & trying to catch her toes etc

  My 4 mo old does the same!!! The other night he hit his legs so hard (he's in a crib in our room still) that I woke up my hubs and asked him if somebody was at the front door? It sounded like banging!!! He's so strong! I never thought it could be gas?! Interesting!!

  Pretty certain it's not gas, she's never really been gassy and isn't crying or in pain like the other comments I'm guessing it's a new skill glad I'm not the only one who thought it odd thanks everyone
