Kicks!

My baby seems to enjoy booting me in the cervix. It feels so weird! Did anyone else have this? His kicks started at 18 weeks I am now almost 22 weeks. We can even feel them on the outside they are so powerful x

Yes- mine favours the vertical down kick too and I am now 33 wks. Could be punches too- but either way you have my sympathy... It bloody hurts!

Me too - you're not alone! 28 +2 here and as I said to the MW today, I never realised they could go so low down..get quite worried sometimes, but she didn't seem at all stressed about it. It's definitely not the best feeling though, is it?...

I have a very active baby and have lots of videos of the baby punching and kicking out of my stomach. The cervical punches are particularly 'special' though. I also have the cervical stretching sensation everytime there's a growth spurt and the newest one is tucking his feet in between my ribs.

Weirdly I think I'll miss my little internal boxer when he's born.

Yes! At 31 weeks and I can feel this too!! I'm hoping they're punches with fists though, not kicks with feet.
