Is this just me, last time round with Noah although he was very active generally it was a nice feeling having him move and seeing the bits of baby poke out at us, you could really feel him move around lots.

However this time round when bub decided to get a wriggle on you really know about it, and Im just just talking about the odd painfull poke in the ribs. Its inscruciatingly painfull! I end up going ridged and trying not to scream, my bump moves around very violently and freaks the hell out of OH, and Icant move and this can go on for 1/2 hour or so, while I just try to wrap my arms around my bump to hold in in place to stop the jaring movement, which can poke out a good few inches. I dont know if this is cause my stomach muscles are weaker now or just this baby is very strong, Iwondered if anyone else had experience of this, as its really disconcerting.

i went through it... the last 3 weeks was awful!!!!! i had lots of baths and rubbed my belly a lot and it helped but im afraid i dont know of anything else you can do

Cat i totally sympathise i swear this one trying to break out lol

Mention it to MW and tell them it getting to much!!

My bump reminds me of the Alien "chest buster" scene some days... and it gets particularly violent when I put on a specific Vivaldi track, not sure if that means he/she likes it or hates it though

Most uncomfortable times for me are when I get poked down below though... it's like someone is sticking a finger in my pee hole

I remember that feeling! Frankie is a finger sucker and I'm sure that was ahat she was doing when I got that sensation.
