From yesterday I sometimes feel some periodical throbbing movements from my abdomen. I'm wondering what is this. I feel the regular bubbles sometimes apart from this, but no kicks like before. Does anybody experience this? Pls. explain, I'm worried.

(I read in 'what to expect...' book that babies get hiccups in womb. Is it something like this?) Shikha replied. Hey there,

Do not worry please. These are the baby movements only. The kicks youwill feel later on between 22nd to 24th week. These starnge feeling in your abdomen is because of your littloo only. These days I think all of us are going thru these feelings. At times little pain in lower abdomen or some gas bubbles or at times a blast in your stomach. They are treating this as their playground and enjoying themselves. so you also enjoy with them!

Take care! 2ndtmom replied. see, our worries moves in circles:-) one way or other we are concerned about the same issue;-)

don't worry about it.. before 24 weeks won't feel any kick.. maybe a flutter but not kick cuz baby is too small for that:-) like I wrote this morning, I didn't feel any movement AT ALL for 4-5 days and me, very very worried and paranoid me, finally decide to go to doc:-) she heard the hb and everything was fine.. and GUESS WHAT after 4-5 days now im feeling it:-)can u believe these brats.. they are nnot even born yet and see their need for attention:-)

so do my doc told me to do.. DON'T WORRY AND ENJOY UR PREGNANCY;-)

btw baby hb monitors aren't that expensive just go and check the store near u but if u ask me u don't need one:-) Naveena replied. Someone opened a thread about baby heartbeat monitor few days ago.Check it.
