When we did skin to skin in the early weeks it felt just like her movements when she was on the inside. I loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-637285 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 14:52:45 +0000 googly-eyes 637285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know, all I know is she kicked a ton in there and she kicks a ton outside, even six months later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-637278 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 14:51:03 +0000 skibobrown 637278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! So much!! DD kicked me *all* the time on my left side. It always felt like she was trying to extend her leg, and kick her way right on the side of my stomach. As soon as she was born and they put her on the scale to weigh her, she stretched out her right leg as far as she could. I knew that it was the leg that the had been trying to stretch for the last several months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-637276 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 14:50:51 +0000 mrsmenow 637276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: My LO did the same thing with her hands.</p> <p>I would always feel this little tickle by her head. Now I see her hands by her face and the way she plays with them and it makes perfect sense of what I felt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-637263 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 14:48:40 +0000 banana 637263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!!! My son was a major leg kicker in the womb and when he came out, he was a total leg kicker (couldn't even keep him swaddled for very long). My daughter was more of a roller and stretcher in my belly and she was the same on the outside! It's pretty awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636685 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 12:15:41 +0000 photojane 636685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I mostly just felt her stretching out or her hands punching around by her face. She didn't kick much. It's exactly the same on the outside! She always has her hands going nuts up by her face, and when she stretches out, I always remember how she used to do the same on the inside. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636649 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 12:06:33 +0000 littlebittyhouse 636649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I really loved those tiny baby days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636498 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:19:15 +0000 ladyfingers 636498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: yes on the hiccups too!! So cute :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636493 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:18:36 +0000 ladyfingers 636493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! He was always wiggling his butt and stretching in utero and does that outside now too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636488 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:16:25 +0000 mrskc 636488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It was so neat to see the way he moved and stretched after he was born and know that's exactly what I was feeling when he was in my belly. The hiccups outside the womb were just like when he was inside! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636469 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:09:29 +0000 JoJoGirl 636469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh this is so funny. Looking forward to it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636465 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:07:49 +0000 lolabee 636465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I was so curious to see how his feet would move IRL - definitely moved the same way they felt. Also, later on in the third tri I could often feel his little fingers on my cervix (SO strange!), sure enough he sleeps with his arms up all of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636449 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 10:57:34 +0000 prettylizy 636449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found that the way she stretched inside me looked exactly how I imagines when she was outside. Warms my heart to think about those new baby days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636447 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 10:56:55 +0000 T.H.O.U. 636447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! It was so cute to see in person! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborns-movements-correspond-to-kicks-you-felt#post-636441 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 10:54:43 +0000 JoJoGirl 636441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is totally random, but I'm curious! The baby kicks me in SUCH weird ways... punching my cervix, sometimes stretching so opposite sides of my belly are pulled at the same time, rapid-fire kicks (like 10 in a row, then they stop). I'm so curious to see if when he/she is born, I'll be able to recognize what the heck is going on in there!! </p>
