Is it weird I mostly feel him at night.
Like I won't feel him most of the day. Its
starting to worry me.I do feel him in the
day sometimes, but mostly at night. I
don't know, maybe I just don't have a very
active baby

Maybe your just busier during the day. I
know I mostly feel the baby move ALOT when
i get home from work and relax but during
the day not much at all. I think that's
probably because im too busy to notice or
maybe he/she sleeps alot during the day.
Not until 22 - 24 weeks will you feel baby
move regularly and then you'll have to
start doing kick counts. The baby is still
pretty small and doesn't make contact with
the uterus wall constantly like it does
when it gets bigger

Movement also has a rocking motion which
may get your baby to fall asleep. Maybe
that is just your baby's established
routine. No need to be worried, but if you
are really worried call your Dr.

It's normal. You probably just notice it
more at night because you're just lying in
bed doing nothing. Jenny always used to
decide to wake up & kick me like crazy
when I went to bed, & this baby is the
same. She kicks so hard I can see my tummy
moving when I lie down.

yes, the movement of walking and such
could rock the baby to sleep. I know when
I was pregnant my son wouldn't kick really
all day. As SOON as I sat down he was just
kicking away... It was so weird when I'd
be in my chorus trying to sing. He'd kick
like crazy, I think he liked it! or it's
cuz I was just standing around doing
nothing.

Yeah the most active he gets during the
day is when I have to pee, he starts
kicking my bladder, or he'll be leaning on
my bladder till i go. Then I'll feel him
move into a different spot

my baby is the same way. The only time i
feel him during the day is after i
eat...other than that hes way more active
at night. Thats Josh's "bonding" time
with baby boy. He talks to him and rest
his hand on my belly b/c hes always
moving.

The weirdest thing for me is that fetal
movement is nothing like I thought it
would be. Im not sure what i was expecting
but it's nothing like what i expected.
Also when will you start to feel it from
the outside (ie when will my SO being able
to feel it). I know if i catch it at the
right moment I can put my hand down and
feel the little "thump" but most of the
time it's just something I can feel.

Just a few weeks ago people were able to
see Rylan moving on the outside. (im 28
weeks now) But he moves ALOT when im just
sitting, but when I move atall, like
walking or somthing like that its like he
falls asleep. Im pretty sure like everyone
said its normal. But its nice to feel them
huh? I love it, even though he keeps me up
at night!
