Hey, I’m 27 weeks pregnant and when my little girl kicks it sometimes actually causes pain and discomfort…
Is this normal? Especially for 27 weeks, I would’ve thought she was still small?

Mine definitely cause pain sometimes. It is normal as long as it isn't ongoing pain. X

it’s only 10% of the time-but when it happens it defo scares me lol. Maybe I’m over thinking x

Yes iv been getting kicks that sometimes hurts.. when she kicked me last week she must have kicked a nerve too cos I got such a shock in my stomach x

@Isabelle these kicks are stretching our muscles, including uterine muscle so some doscomfort/pain is normal. X

Yes I think so. I keep being told horror stories from friends about their babies getting feet caught in ribs for the last few weeks etc etc

I keep hearing these too which is not a nice story time lol !!

I know! I mean, sure share grim stories of pregnancy/labour but pick the right time to tell it, hey?!

They can't actually get their feet stuck in your ribs! Kick them and push their bums up under the ribcage, absolutely!
