Got a number of kicks which felt like he was stamping on my cervix! It feels so odd - not nice at all like I was expecting - do I just need to get used to it? Am nearly 21 weeks and have felt movement before but not proper hoofs! Can I make him change position a bit - how?

Just wait till you get the kick under the ribs or one to your bladder!!!
He'll move around a lot over over teh next wee while so don'ty worry about changing his position.
You get used to the strange kicks and prods - I acrually found them quite comforting!

I used to rub his foot through my tummy which would get him to move it out of an uncomfortable place. If I was getting hungry he'd kick a lot then settle down once I'd eaten.

Mine used to spend hours poking me in the same place, always after lunch. Poke poke poke...poke poke poke...used to drive me insane.

Ooh its crazy when you are nearly ready to pop and they stick a foot or elbow out and it makes your bump a funny shape and you have to try and push it back in!!!

I miss that but I am 18 weeks pg again and started to feel movements for the first time yesterday - it's lovely to feel it again!!
