Seeing my stomach move creeps me out 😱

Everyone is different and your feelings, every individual’s experience, is valid! Personally Ive been both happy and reassured, as well as horrified/creeped out by it. Kind of reflects my personality as I’m a total positive hippy goth kind of gal who is always bitter sweet about everything and sees all perspectives. Total Libra. 😛 Take care!

I love it. Let’s me know baby is healthy and exercising

Same here 😭 deffo not used to seeing/feeling it

@ROSE oow my baby boy loves reggae as well, planning to play it at my elective csection ^^

I totally understand what you mean, I'm in my third trimester with twins so I see body parts moving all the time in my belly, it's so wierd and still sort of creeps me out sometimes. One thing I do that help me when the movemnts get too overwhelming is wear a pregnancy belt that has quite a thick lining so you will feel the kicks and movements but most likely not see them happening. I also tend to sort of pet the bulging and either speak or sing to it, I find it sooths them and relaxes their tensing against my skin

I loved it feeling her roll around, but at the same time creeped out. 😄 😅

I would listen to reggae when I was pregnant with my first and he would start moving. I loved it!

Wow, I've never seen anything.lile that before

The belly moving was my favourite bit of pregnancy lol

I found it a bit creepy with all three of mine. My oldest was the most active when still in the womb. Could see his head poking out just under my ribs quite frequently, and knees/elbows too 😬

I feel the same! I think it’s creepy a bit to feel her move around in me. Very neat to feel her flutter and that. But very strange and I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it. 😫

I personally love feeling my baby moving and them rolling what feels like a foot against my hand and I can make out the little shape... havent seen an actual foot sticking out yet but I cant actually wait for that. I find it so amazing and fascinating! :) 👶

My baby moves all the time

That’s fine it’s relatable to anyone anytime

Whoa! I have never seen something like that before. Cool!

I've been taking videos. Sometimes there are some really big moves and it's kinda amazing. I've taken video of baby having hiccups in utero too.

I loved feeling my little ones move. It felt amazing zx

Lol I felt the same. The kicks were comforting, the actual sight of my baby bulging out of my stomach was not. I kept telling myself "why do people think this is normal, this is not normal 😲😲😲" lol

I’m fine but my other half gets really jumpy when baby kicks his hand or does a big roll or turn and you can see it. It really makes me giggle (and I’m a belly laugher) so he gets even more active and then my other half gets really freaked out and I laugh more- it’s never ending 😂

That's actually a beautiful picture😊❤

Haha 😄 I can understand where you're coming from, it's weird to think about but I always felt reassured by it that she was healthy and active!

It’s so cute 😍

the first time i felt my daughter kick i was driving to my moms. it was like 8ish maybe 9 at night and i was on the interstate and i swerved off to the side so fast 😂 my boyfriend was in the car behind me and called me and was like wtf are you okay and i was like yeah she just kicked for the first time and it scared me 😂😂😂

I 100% get this. When you’re younger you imagine yourself pregnant. Now that I’m here, looking at my growing 19wk belly sorta gives me anxiety. A human is inside me and will get bigger. I feel horrible because it is a major blessing, but it all can go to my head in a scary way if I stare at it too long 😢 and all at the same time, I’m in love with my little person and cannot wait to get them on the other side.

I loved feeling the kicks and rolls but one day it was like my baby stuck it’s head out and kept going. I screamed and tried rubbing it to stop, it was creepy and felt like an alien!

That was my favorite part of being pregnant actually 🤷

Loved it. Seeing my stomach warp shapes was surreal

My coworker froze mid-convo after seeing a lump move across my stomach 🤪.

😂

I love it!!! It’s so reassuring to know he’s moving around and doing okay.

It didn't freak me out but now I'm further along I find sometimes it can make me uncomfortable but love seeing my belly move tbh jus not so much when I'm sleepin 😄 or trying to sleep

It didn't creep me out but the more she moved the sicker I felt.

I’m 37 weeks and it’s so uncomfortable, trying to sleep is also a nightmare when she moves around so much. It’s looks and feels as though she is going to stretch my tummy so much it will split. Very odd but most amazing experience. X

My current situation at 38 weeks. It's very uncomfortable

My husband was freaked out watching him move but he loved feeling him kick.

Girl! I'm with you. It was totally creepy. Both times! Lol But also really cool. My pregnancy didn't feel real until I could see the baby moving around in there.

1 reply

I felt the same. It didn't feel real till I could feel them moving or kicking, but seeing it still creeps me out lol

I thought it was creepy too but I got so used to it that when I was at work every time it happenedI just threw me off just a little bit loved it scared me when he didn't move

No I loved it. I was worried when my baby didn’t move

I kind of feel the same in the sense that, i also don’t mind feeling the kicks but, when i have my hand on my stomach and i feel him kick against my hand it freaks me out a little🤣 can’t explain it but feeling him kick inside doesn’t creep me out until i get my hand against it, or until theres an object on it and i see the kick move the object. Same sometimes with actually seeing it, i guess because it’s just like wow theres actually a person inside me😱 😂 its very weird but for the most part i do enjoy it

This makes me laugh. I looooved seeing it move. Kind of has an alien vibe but it's awesome. I loved playing with my babies inutero by poking their feet in or reciprocating what they did back. To me it is like probably the very best part....that and no period. My older son was a lil creeped out watching it I guess. Haha. I can see how it looks weird. That pic is definitely weird...edited I'm sure.

Everyone finds pregnancy different I hated it because I was was filled with anxiety not having control or knowing what was going on in there but loved feeling movement and actually missed my bump afterwards but that's just me. And it is weird that something that started of so teeny and insignificant is now wriggling around and kicking you from the inside, it's crazy so I completely get what you mean x

I love it. I could watch it all day. Haha maybe I’m just weird.

Honestly there’s nothing wrong with what you’re saying/feeling. I’ve felt queasy several times after practically fist bumping my baby and feeling the movement so strong. It wasn’t creepy or gross but just new to me and naturally that’s how I reacted to it. Otherwise I’m used to it now and love his movements.

I was more “creeped out” when he wasn’t moving 🥺

No I freak out when she’s not moving as much, you’re gonna miss it soooo much when it’s over! So enjoy it now and record it, take pics.. it’s such a beautiful thing actually 😁

Omg yeh me too I had three babies in there and it freaked me out 😭

Now that must have been such a crazy feeling. Wow. Congrats

Yeeh was looool very weird😂

That is a photoshopped pic

I found it on google and only ment to show how creeped out seeing my stomach move made me. I've never seen anything this defined on me before but others claim they could, at this point I don't know if it is photoshopped or not. Also I already told everyone in the post that it's a google picture not me.

That is an amazing picture!!! I've never seen a body part so clearly like that. I loved watching my tummy.

This was my favorite part of being pregnant

Yesss!! It is the weirdest feeling. I smile at times but then when i think about it I’m like 😳 this is still uncomfortable and weird. No one understands me everyone always says it’s the most beautiful thing and a blessing and while it is . It’s still weird ! Nothing has changed my mind , and I’m at 32 weeks now lol 🤷🏻‍♀️ sorry I’m Not the typical i fell in love with my fetus when he looked like a shrimp. I need a baby in my face and for me to see him physically lol i love him. But i can’t fully love someone i haven’t seen :)

Yes! You 100% get it. I'm 30 weeks with my second and I still can't get over seeing my stomach move from sisde to side. Someone called me a crap mom for saying so, but I legit can't get over it. 😂

It's like you're in my head. So glad I'm not the only one x

I think it’s the best part 🥺🥰

When I felt the flutters I thought I had gas I’m a ftm so it was all so new but I know enjoy it getting kicked by my pro soccer player son lol it’s beautiful to feel the life I’ve created 💙💙
