    Stupid question but...

    Is it possible to squash your baby's head while it's in utero? Lol told you it was a silly one...

    But my bub seems very fond of lying transverse at the moment and a lot of the time that I lie on my left side these days it starts kicking up a flurry on both sides of my body. But not when I lie on my right side. I'm wondering if I'm somehow hurting it when I lie on my left?

    It's not silly and no I don't think so from that. They're pretty well padded.
    I have a transverse lier too, and I notice the same. Can you identify which end is which? Mine doesn't like being head down lol.
    I have a 2yo that isn't particularly gentle. Belly bub has learned very quickly to give him the boot too when he is too boisterous.

    Phe that's so cute! I assume baby's head would be fine, as Kim said they are well padded- and protected. Can you tell which way the little one lies? I can't tell with mine at all but I do get movements simultaneously at opposite ends regularly, both top-bottom and at angles side-side.

    Thanks everyone! No I can't tell which way it lies but I get more kicks on my right side than left so I'm thinking it's probably head-left, feet-right.
