Please tell me someone else gets this!? At first I thought I was hearing things, or it was my own joints - but then my OH noticed it when we were sat totally still in silence and has many times since. I've not been worried,so much so I forgot to mention it at my last appointment a few weeks back, only at my OH's insistance did I mention it today.

I think the MW thought I was insane haha. She has never heard of such a thing....

What is it?!?!?

I sometimes hear this too, so you're not alone! Maybe our babies have clicky joints??

I've not had this but I've seen about a dozen posts about it on mn since I've been here since June, so you are definitely not alone!

Ive had this just in the last couple of days, never before though (this is DC3).
would love to know why!

Mine have all clicked :) They click even more now they have learnt to do it Confused I always assumed it was because they were cramped and trying to stretch their legs and then they clicked, as we do if we are cramped.

It's normal - both of my two have done it and I am looking forward to it happening again with this one - I'm 24 weeks so any day now! I think it's just their joints clicking. Nobody can ever come up with the same explanation though, even doctors (I have heard all sorts from air bubbles popping to the usual cracking joints) but I have also heard mine click outside the womb too when they stretch, so..

So glad I'm not the only one! It's very odd that there isn't an explanation for it, I hoped someone would know.

Maybe I'll have a clicky jointed baby. :-)

Thanks, ladies x
