17+4 - how long are they? DC2 seems to have a good reach

DC2 was super active during the night, and seemed to be kicking/hitting just next to my left hip and to the right of my bellybutton simultaneously. I can't believe how far he/she can stretch!

Anyone else got a super stretchy, fidgety one?

I am 15 + 1 and our little one moves alot at the moment it is just bubbles but the midwife has warned me that I am in for a very active bump.

Perhaps baby is lying diagonally.

I think it must be diagonal. For ages I just felt general movement, but the last couple of days it pokes/kicks.

DS wasn't this active, I think I may be in for a lot of sleepless nights until I get used to it!

If you can feel it already at 15+1 it sounds like yours will be a little gymnast in there!

Hi,

I think our bumps like to get into a routine, after all they all the shots. I suspose it must be nice to stretch out and see how much room they have (I know I do in bed)

I know I think I am either having a gymnast or dancer the way it moves around. My partner and I laugh as I know when they have moved too much as I need the bathroom or get really bad backache. LOL.

Oh gosh yes. Nothing like a sharp kick to the bladder in the middle of the night!

LOL, or part the way through taking minutes in the middle of a board meeting.

This still happening at 36 weeks - I thought they were supposed to run out of room Hmm DD likes to push against my hipbone and stick her foot up by my ribs. Not pleasant!

It sounds odd but I can't wait for all the kicks and hits to start.
