popping noise from tummy

I get like a popping noise coming from my tummy several times a day (kind of like the noise you get when you blow a bubble with some gum and it pops).

Anyway i've 'googled' this but no luck some say its the baby that has a clicky hip/joints, some say its the sack rubbing/catching. Does anyone actually know? It doesnt bother me but i got a bit freaked out last night when baby was moving then it popped and then baby was suddenly silent

Hi Pinkyp, I used to have this too when I was pregnant with my son, I brought it up with the midwife one day and she looked at me as if I was mad! Well I wasn't mad and I did hear it throughout my pregnancy!

When my son was born in September I made sure they checked his hips and they were fine and don't click at all. I don't know what the noise was but I don't think it was him.

Hope this puts your mind at ease :)

I used to get it in my last pregnancy, when I asked about it it seemed quite common but I have no idea what it was!

My baby was fine btw :) Pretty sure it's nothing to worry about.

I've had this in this pregnancy (my fourth) and one or two of the others too. Nothing wrong with any of my children, although I think they might be a bit double-jointed like me. I really don't think its anything to worry about... hth! :)
