I was pretty distracted by pain though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-520046 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 17:19:29 +0000 StbHisMrs 520046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my son there was quite a while between my water breaking and delivery, I have a picture somewhere of his outline after my water broke. I did feel him moving around. With my second it was such a quick delivery after my water was broken and the contractions were right on top of each other I couldn't tell you if I felt her move or not. In the early stages she was moving because they had to keep readjusting the monitors.</p> <p>I think I remember reading somewhere that they are a lot less active while in active labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519220 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 11:47:25 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 519220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No? I don't recall...but then again I might have been way too distracted to notice. I'd say no though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519205 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 11:41:12 +0000 oliviaoblivia 519205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD would move just before each contraction. She was an early warning system.<br /> Later in labor she was so active the monitors kept needing to be readjusted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519190 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 11:34:13 +0000 Running Elley 519190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember feeling him move during the first parts of labor- not at the end! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519143 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 11:15:48 +0000 lovehoneybee 519143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember feeling E move at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519134 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 11:11:13 +0000 sslm 519134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: Ouch indeed!!!

Perhaps it is because my water actually broke so there wasn't much fluid cusioning the blows but it was pretty painful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519043 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:20:51 +0000 emg86 519043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SIL had a natural birth, her baby girl was sunny side up but at some point she says she felt her move and change position. She wasn't sunny side up when she was out and I think she's mentioned her back labor changed at that point as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519033 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:15:00 +0000 .twist. 519033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>what a great question!

I didn't notice anything because I was in so much pain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-519004 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:02:30 +0000 MamaMoose 519004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked this question too. I really didn't feel much movement during labor. But I had an epidural so that may have had something to do with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518999 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:01:49 +0000 cascademom 518999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember some feeling of movement in labor. When my contractions were strong, I didn't feel him move around a lot. Even my husband warned me of that as I started going into active labor. He kicked off the monitor quite a bit, so I was constantly being repositioned. The funniest feeling I had was when I was delivering him. I could feel his feet at the top of my tummy as he was exiting the birth canal. Weirdest feeling ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518995 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:00:53 +0000 DillonLion 518995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Too distracted to notice either way. As I was delivering her, I felt her legs leaving from the inside. It was so weird feeling!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518992 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 10:00:04 +0000 sorrycharlie 518992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was in too much pain to notice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518991 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 09:59:43 +0000 JoJoGirl 518991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a good question! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518985 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 09:52:12 +0000 hellobeeboston 518985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good question!</p> <p>But I don't remember feeling him move while I was in labor. I can't remember already, but I think the contractions masked any movement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-feel-the-baby-moving-while-in-labor#post-518981 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 09:49:37 +0000 sslm 518981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am laying down watching my belly move all around and feeling awesome kicks, and I was wondering, do you feel baby kicks while you're in labor? Do babies still move around at that point, or are they too busy moving into the birth canal? Or maybe you're in too much pain to notice? Just curious! </p>
