No wonder you feel like you're being beaten up from the inside!

Amazing! The baby was determined to straighten their legs, lol, even though they had to almost bend in half to do so!

I'm sure that's what dd2 did inside me.

I find it quite creepy. Fascinating but creepy. Like a skeleton at a disco??? Grin

Eurgh, yeah the determination to straighten their legs, I remember that. Could see bum one side and feet the other, so weird.

Have to admit the moment he appears to look at the camera is slightly alien and creepy. But the amazingness overwhelmes that!

Looks like h is trying to break out Grin

I loved watching my baby inside me I was lucky enough to have several 3D scans throughout my pregnancy. It's just awesome!

CakeNinja · 23/03/2019 16:01

Arghhh I hate seeing things like that!! I hated being pregnant, thinking there was a squished up crushed baby inside, needing to stretch their legs. Also hated my belly moving and seeing bits poking out Grin

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 23/03/2019 16:07

That was DD. She never stopped moving. She's 12 now and still hasnt stopped moving.

pisspawpatrol · 23/03/2019 16:15

That's incredible! It reminds me of when a cat arches its back.

Birdie6 · 23/03/2019 16:22

Made me want to jump up and stretch my legs !

picklemepopcorn · 23/03/2019 16:22

I wonder what stage that baby was at?

TakeMeBackToBlueberryHill · 23/03/2019 16:36

Felt my muscles twitching again in sympathy! DH was mega freaked out by DD's feet- you could see them through my skin [vom]

hairypaws · 23/03/2019 16:41

That's an amazing piece if footage. No wonder our bladders feel like they are taking a kicking, cos they are!

catinboots99 · 23/03/2019 17:37

How the heck do they manage to turn the whole way round ready to be born??? It doesn't look like there would be room!!!

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 23/03/2019 18:37

I was the same cakeninja, I felt like if been invaded by an alien. It is amazing though... I can appreciate it much more when it's not me bring beaten from the inside!

BabyDueDecember2019 · 11/04/2019 20:57

Wow!!!!!

SwayingInTime · 11/04/2019 21:04

The fetus looks nearly term so I assume they chose a breech one for the released footage because it looks more interesting? Incredible to see!

Littlebelina · 11/04/2019 21:07

The study was done at about 32week gestation on average. Latest they did it was 36 weeks

RiddleyW · 11/04/2019 21:09

Ooh that makes me feel weird and squished - no wonder they’re so pissy by the time they come out.

reallybadidea · 11/04/2019 21:09

God, that looks so uncomfortable. No wonder babies cry when they're born - from relief at being able to stretch out at last!
