Heaps of Movement & Hicups..

[Jakabella]

Morning!
As this is my first I have no idea if this is normal or not!
Its getting pretty tight and less roomy for bub in my belly now and I can feel EVERY movement he / she makes now - like what I assume is rolling and stretching and he / she seems to be heaps more active now - my question is is this just because bub is so much bigger now and he /she is touching all the sides that I can feel it so much more??
The movements are just so much stronger and faster and more rapid at times..

Also I notice that bub has the hicups at least once a day! Would that be normal as well??

I send my self silly thinking that it could be convultions or something bad..

Thanks in Adavnce..

Hicups are very normal so dont worry about the all my babies have had them, so expect that once baby is out it will get them after a feed as well which can mean they bring up some of there milk so go buy yourself some nice look shoulder rags for after feeds...

You will be feeling baby more now as like you said bub is running out of room... You will soon see lumbs and bumps sticking out all over the place, and if you try to push them back bub will only stick them out more....

Near the end of my PG I would see lots of knee's and arms, it looks very strange but its quite normal and amazing.... So take some photo's I wish I did or better still film it when Bub next has a good boggie in your tummy....

I have had several bumps that stick out in odd positions!
I tried filming it yesterday but eveytime I pushed record the little monkey would stop! hehehe

Silly question perhaps, how do you know that it's hiccups? I *think* I may have felt them, but not really sure what it would feel like.

When I was pregnant with my twins my little girl used to get the hiccups all the time. She still now at 5 months old get the hiccups quite a lot, at least once a day.

Devon- I found with the hiccups it was such a constant rhythmical kind of movement. If you imagine when you have the hiccups you kind of jump and then do it again in a second or so that is what it feels like.

my bubs is the same, hiccups on a near daily basis!! You can tell they are different to a kick, as hiccups are a constant rhythm, i love feeling them
