Dancing on my cervix?

kp90 · January 2016

So I have seen previous posts or read things where previous pregnant women talk about the weird sensation when the baby was pushing on their cervix, etc. Last night at the dinner table I was startled to say the least when I felt like something was literally trying to come out.. "down there". SO looked at me funny and I can only imagine the faces I was making. It was super uncomfortable and I seriously felt like her little foot was trying to kick out. So needless to say, was this a dance party on my cervix? Is it too early to feel that at almost 23 weeks? Has this happened to any of you yet or in the past? I am all about her movements and love feeling them.. but this one was very... strange!

I'm 23 weeks and the baby is always on my cervix. It Feels just like you're describing- like something is moving its way out of my vagina haha. It's the wierdest feeling!!

I've gotten some isolated kicks down there. It is not my favorite. If this is anything remotely like what birth is going to feel like, welp, that's gonna suck.

Still better than futurebaby using my intestines (stomach? I have no idea, but it's hitting something that makes for instant nausea) for a punching bag though. I've learned the hard way that it's not a good idea to eat any snacks right before reading time.

Happened to me and it freaked me out so much that I went and got an ultrasound the next day.

Off topic, but I just wanted to say that I love that @Merciel calls the baby futurebaby. When my husband proposed he gave me a few little gifts that signified our path in life together, and one of them was a baby doll that we called futurebaby. Actually, futurebaby was concealing the engagement ring in his box of baby doll paraphernalia. When I found out I was pregnant, I put futurebaby in a onesie that says "I'm new here" and put the positive pregnancy tests (I know, gross, I peed on those) in his hands. And every so often these days, we make futurebaby cry a little around our dogs to get them used to the sound of baby cries...whether or not this is working to acclimate them or it's just hilarious to us remains to be seen.

Slightly more on topic, my baby drags his toes, or something, along the top of my bladder and it's not pleasant. Nope.

I've also kind of felt this sensation! I mentioned to my mom that a lot of the kicks are REALLY low, and she said when she was pregnant with me she half expected to see a foot dangling out some of the times!

I feel this all the time, especially when I've got a full bladder. When I've got to pee I get a dance party on my cervix and a nice punch or kick to my bladder. I enjoy it though, because when I haven't felt LO move in a bit, I allow my bladder to get full and it hasn't failed me to feel the "let me show you what it REALLY feels like to have to pee" party that goes on in there.

Yes to the cervix dance party!!

First, that baby is hilarious! And second, Baby punched me in the intestines this weekend and just about dropped me. Thanks for letting me know I had to poo. I haven't felt anything on my cervix though. Thank goodness. That low would scare me. Baby does like hanging out on my lower left side. Only today have I felt the baby by my belly button. If I want to feel the baby move I just have to lean over, baby hates being squashed. Maybe that's why the baby decided to move up.

kbrands7 · January 2016

Yep. I'm getting lots of cervix and bladder kicks too!

laurenmdrn16 · January 2016

I got a massive cervix kick that caused me to literally jump out of my seat! I actually ran to the bathroom and grabbed a mirror to check everything was still in its proper place. My son loved to have his feet up by my ribs and would get stuck sometimes, but this little girl is standing straight up Riverdancing on my lady parts. Very different and bizarre experience!

kp90 · January 2016

Hahaha. So glad to hear I am not alone on this! And those babies are hilarious. The joys of pregnancy!

JoMunson · January 2016

I like to call it "checking to see if he can be born yet". To me it feels like a scraping from the inside. Very uncomfortable!

folamij · January 2016

Yes! She did this to me last night and the look on my face must have scared MH because he asked if everything was ok. LO also likes to use my bladder as drums..especially in the middle of the night.

and_peggy · January 2016

Literally the only place she kicks me. Now she simultaneously kicks me there and punches really high so I guess she's got the tantrum thing down already.

folamij · January 2016

@aehogan90 my LO did the exact same thing the other night! I have a pretty good feeling she is stubborn already...

Lurking from June....specifically for this post haha.

19 weeks and the baby is literally sitting on my cervix and won't move. Not painful, just extremely uncomfortabe. To early for this.

Feels like she is going to fall out, for two days now, but my cervix is completely closed.

and_peggy · January 2016

@folamij that's awesome. I'm sure, between my husband and me, this child will be incredibly stubborn. Totally feel ya

Baby's been kicking down since Christmas and it resonates in my butt! Makes sense that he/she is hitting my cervix, but that's not what it feels like. It's weird that so many people are experiencing something similar, because I'd never heard of this happening before it happened to me. Just one of those things no one tells you, I guess.

cgrover192 · January 2016

I hate when I wake up and don't feel like moving yet but my baby kicks my bladder until I'm forced to run to the bathroom.
