    Wink Bubs moving about!

    I was starting to feel abit disheartened as I had not felt bubs kicking or moving about too much
    I did feel flutters etc in the early days!

    So I would spend most of my nights waiting to feel things as they say bubs is most active from 8pm - 8am??? (depends where you read!)

    ANYWAY... the last few days I have been getting kicks and alot more feeling *YAY* - but in the mornings and afternoons. Which is interesting! But wow, a few definate kicks!

    So - just a Q - when did you feel your bubs move about the most? Did it change as you went through your pregnancy?

    Im just so happy I can finally feel bubs moving about and letting me know its still there

    there was never really any particular time with either of my first two pg. sometimes in the morning, sometimes night, sometimes in the evening etc. The only 'time' I consistantly got movement is if we DTD (which wasn't very often).

    Until a few weeks ago, I was getting movement at the same times during the morning and at night. I would always notice first thing in the morning when laying in bed and then at night he would wake up at 6, 9 and 11.30! lol I would still get movement occassionally throughout the day but I don't think I noticed it as much as I was busy doing other things. The last couple of weeks, there's no pattern to it really but I feel it multiple times throughout the day/night. He's busy during the night too because I was woken up at 2am with a hard low kick earlier this week.

    19w1d was when I felt bubs move first and now he is very active, particularly after dinner (perhaps my stomach is stealing his room) and also later and night when I am less active. But its pretty random as well - the coolest thing is feeling hiccups!!

    there didn't seem to be a pattern but as others said during the day you tend to be busy and so don't notice everything and will always seem to notice when your still and relaxed.

    At night when i layed down the baby nearly always moved. Infact Dh used to "play" with the baby every night when we went to bed by rubbing/poking my tummy and the baby would follow him around and kick at him. DH is looking forward to this part again.

    I haven't got real kicks yet so they seem really irregular and sometimes i am still not sure if it's just a muscle spasm or the baby, as i never felt the "pre-kicks" the first time around. I guess i can expect them soon, it was 20wks1day the first time round and I am just over 17 now.

    definately more in the evening. when i am still. i think all my moving around in the day keeps him sleeping/still.
