Baby 'kicks' in two different places at once?

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether it's normal to feel the baby kicking (or punching, or head-butting!) in two different places at exactly the same time?

I'm 25 weeks and notice this especially if I'm lying on my left side: I'll feel movement directly under my left side and simultaneously I'll feel the same 'kick' in the middle of my stomach, or by my right ribcage, or elsewhere.

Is this normal? Sorry if this is a really stupid question.

Thanks very much for any advice.

just think of how it would feel if the baby were doing star jumps. I felt kicks all over the place!!!

well i guess it has two legs
and two arms
so could in theory be in 4 places!

Or 5 if you include the bum nudges they like to give you or 6 if you include the head butts......

and if you add in elbows and knees that's another 4

OOH true and then 8 fingers and two thumbs and 10 toes...

and the hiccups - when it feels like the whole baby moves

I'm certain mine was doing handstands the other night
I had a number of pointy out bits, plus a delightful (NOT) sensation on my pelvic floor
I'll be 35 wks this week and quite frankly am expecting Nadia Comaneci to exit in 5 wks time

Pmsl at Nadia Comaneci as long as she doens't use your cervix as a spring board!

oh oh...think I am getting broody looking at these threads!

when I lay on my left side, my bump (who is now 1!) would 'stand', pushing bum into right hip and head into ribs, whilst doing a grabby hand thing sometimes under ribs, sometimes at cervix (he was breech).

not comfortable...

Mine used to have friends round for kick boxing practice.
