oohhhh just read in my mag that an electric breast pump works as it stimulates the nipples and brings on contractions...

Only problem is no electric breastpump and dont really fancy sitting here trying to get capital FM.

I honestly have no recollection of feeling movements in any of my 3 births. They do have to move though. Otherwise how would they get out?

Absolutely, I remember dd kicking like mad

yes ds2 moved whilst i was labouring, but i became less aware the closer i got to transition and then only aware of urge to push and lack of mw to help!

I felt my baby move when i was having contractions, and was increadibly painfull. Ended up having a c-section though, Consultant + MW thought that baby turned in labour due to me relaxing when i got into the water pool, plus he had cord round his neck!

DD kicked and moved while I had contractions but must admit I was off my face on g&a that I don't really remember what it was like. I just know she moved !!!
