More and more lately (I'm 31 weeks) the baby's movements feel like shudders or crazy shaking! It's so fast and jiggles a whole area of my tummy, it's funny and kind of astonishing! I think she can't possible kick consecutively that fast... it's like if you didn't warm up your car in the winter before starting and the whole car shakes? If that makes sense? Sometimes I can see my stomach shake and shudder for a few seconds. So weird!
Anyone else experience this?

YES! I remember Googling this like crazy and never getting an answer to what it was, but I remember it being exactly like you describe.
-
Yep! I get self-conscious sometimes and cover my stomach because I feel like seeing his bits poke out might be a bit much for some people. Although I'm sure nobody notices but me. I think of it as trying to get comfortable in a very confined space -- I'd probably shake around like that if I were tied up in a sleeping bag, too!

@rachiecakes: I know! I couldn't really find much about it and my BFF said maybe they are practice contractions
@ladyfingers: hahah! Love the analogy!
-
Yes! I started experiencing this as well in the last couple weeks (I'm 32 weeks now)! It's like the baby is twitching or something. I have no idea what's going on, but it's kind of funny to watch, haha.
-
Yes!! You describe it perfectly. I often wonder what on earth is baby girl doing in there!
-
hehe yes!!! LMW is super strong and active and loves to dance... maybe youv'e got a similar little girl in there!!!
-
Me too. Like a pulsating feeling almost. I just wonder all the time what she is doing in there.
-
ahhhh I hated those vibrating feelings! I only felt them with DD
-
Glad I'm not the only one! @mrs. wagon: I can't even imagine it's dancing? Seems more like convulsions! lol!
-
@shopaholic: @chopsuey119: omg just realized I didn't feel them with Wagon Jr.! Just LMW! Maybe it's a girl thing!
-
Yes! I described them as mini-earthquakes.
When my LO was brand spanking new he would have these little arm/hand tremors in his sleep...which totally resembled the mini-earthquakes and explained so much!
-
@Sammyfab: huh! that is WEIRD! I just couldn't imagine it could be a kick or punch because the movements are SO fast!
-
@shopaholic: I used to worry he was having seizures! He turned out OK though. He is 7 months old now! (Time flies!)
-
**Apparently there is a reflex when you push on the foot in a certain way that the whole leg shakes....
-
@pastemoo: weird!
-
@shopaholic: Sure is! He grew out of it... I think. I haven't tried recently.
