Fetal Movements?


Ok, so I have felt the baby kick but how will I know when the baby rolls around and starts shifting? Will it feel the same as the kicking or no?

A kick/punch/elbow etc are a short sharp movement. The wriggling/twisting etc are more of a sweeping movement! May take a while to feel that as its usually when bubs is getting bigger but yeah you will deffo be able to tell the difference x

I promise you that when it starts to happen, you'll know it. It starts off feeling like marbles rolling around under the skin and eventually you feel bigger movements and it's more like a scene from the movie Alien.

With this being your first, it may be 2 or 3 more weeks before you get strong movements. Mine is just now starting to feel like he or she is trying to dig their way out but it's my 3rd so my muscles are really lax.
