Poking at your belly

[TORino]

Hubby is getting cross with me because I can't stop poking at my belly. He said I could be doing some damage

I can't seem to stop myself doing it though. I'm not doing it hard or anything I just keep trying to see if I can feel the baby from the outside. Sometimes I can feel hard bits

Anyone else the same?

i have done it with all 3, doesnt do them any harm they are well protected. Midwife jiggled mine about at my last scan to get baby to move. im always prodding mine xx

I love prodding my bump he he I get prods back now too he he

 

[nikki8092]

Lol i do too its a great feeling. Im starting to think baby might be on the large size as im only 20 weeks and kicks are really prominent xx

I feel a bit guilty for doing this, at last scan they were poking baby to make it change position then it seemed the throw a hissy fit and start kicking its legs about like crazy, couldn't help but think it was annoyed so that's stuck in my head now, I try not to do it, I don't think it would do any damage though

Last night in bed I could see my belly moving from outside, hubby was snoring beside me though, it seems to only do these things when hubbys not here or asleep

Xx

Blimey, he wouldnt want to see what the midwife has done to me then! I poke n prod to see where baby is but when I had my last midwife appointment she had a good proper prod/feel! MUCH harder then I do it. Baby is well padded so wouldnt worry!xx

I do the same ha ha I am 18 weeks tomorrow, TOrino & Babybrain have u felt your baby from the outside yet? been feeling him inside for about 3 weeks but can't wait til me & OH can feel him kick from the outside!! xxxxxx

 

[TORino]

I can't feel baby kick yet on the outside but I have an anterior placenta so that might be why. I can feel hard bits which I think is baby sometimes though lol

Lol, it is my OH that keeps poking my bump as he loves it when baby kicks back. I'm not worried about baby but I am getting bruises.

I thought I did but it turned out to be such a smelly fart the rabbits and the hamster all walked off lmao. My OH bless him had to put up with it

I don't poke but I do squeeze a bit from the outside to check hardness!!! lol And I had my first bump stroke off someone yesterday which was a bit wierd as it isn't all that big yet so it just felt like they were stroking my bikini line!!! ha ha. Thought I felt something faint going on inside yesterday but can't swear that it wasn't wind and only felt it the once...

This is what I feel lol. Just assume it is baby, makes me feel better anyway.
