Spot the difference! Kicks or gas? How did you know for sure?

[Paie]

19 weeks with DC2.
Everything I've read says that basically if its your #2 you'll know what the kicks feel like, and be able to feel them earlier on generally.

Except I don't.

I think I've felt movement, but it's been a while since DD1 so I'm not entirely sure.

How did you tell for sure?

Read the frozen plate trick can help- going to try tonight!

Never heard of the frozen plate trick!

I thought I knew exactly what the movements were with no2. But I’ve since felt movements and I’m definitely not pregnant so I must have been confusing gas with movements!

@newmumwithquestions
Apparently if you pop a plate in the freezer for 10/20 minutes so it's icy cold, then lie down and balance the plate on your bump- the cold will make bubba move and the plate being there will help you to confirm that it has genuinely moved!

I'm never 100% sure though I'd like to think there's no way I could have that much gas

Forever a skeptic so to confirm its not just my imagination will be good!

I'll let you know if it works later
