Recognizing Your Baby’s Movement

Hi lovelies,

Hari ni mau citer pasal baby lagi.. hehe. Jangan mare ye.. sebelum meletup ni sajelaa nak share mane yang sempat. Since baby dah makin besar nie movement dia pon nak makin obvious. Si kecik nie memang hyperactive especially when I attend meeting. Orang dok meeting dia pon galak nak join same :) Tapi seronok sebenarnye..kadang2 siap nampak my tummy bulging from one side to another.  Malu pon ade.. punyelaa seksa nak sorok perut ni.. takut nnti ade lak my colleague yang tergezut. Hehehe. Pape pun syukur sangat sebab masuk 4 months I dh bleh rase movement baby. So lamelaa sket I bleh enjoy sharing rase baby gerak2 ni with my spouse and family. Since my baby banyak gerak, slalunye bleh bajetlaa kalau dia dok stretching kaki ke, angkat punggung ke, kuis2 tangan ke. Jadinye senang nak tegur and borak2 ngan baby. If ade yang confuse your baby tengah buat ape kat dalam tuh, meh nak share sket info yang I gathered about baby’s movement. 

Flutters & Tapping – Usually, this is the early movement that we can feel, very similar to a muscle spasm or gas bubble. Sometimes you may feel like there are butterflies in your stomach. These feelings are also sometimes called quickening.

Kicking & Punching – As your baby gets stronger and slightly bigger, you may begin to feel some jabs and kicks. As your baby grows, these kicks and punches can become more violent and sometimes even jolting enough to take your breath away or stop you in your tracks.

Rolling & Sliding –This feels much like an inside out Shiatsu massage chair in your belly. You may feel like your baby is a little wiggly fish. This is a really fun part of fetal movement because you can actually see your baby moving inside your belly.

Tickles & Popping - It might sound crazy, but it is quite possible that your baby is blowing bubbles in the womb. Although their lungs are full of fluid, they prepare their lungs for birth by expelling these fluids into the amniotic sac, which feels very similar to a bubbling tickle in the womb.

Vibrations & Spasms - Sometimes scary and unexpected, but these feelings are completely normal. These can most likely be attributed to fetal hiccups. Fetal hiccups are unlike regular hiccups, but they have the same spontaneous reaction. It is normal to experience these occurrences multiple times a day, and even normal to never feel them at all. The baby can  be a little frustrated and disturbed by these hiccups, thus thrusting and stretching around inside, causing even more chaos in the womb.

Nowadays, I keep experiencing yang part last tue. Slalu sgt rasa baby’s hiccup. Kadang2 kite pulak yang kesian sampi pegi minum air masak banyak2 dengan harapan cepat baiklaa hiccup tuh (tapi mcm xde efek ape pun.. huhu :p). Rasa hiccup tue mcm heartbeat..tapi slower. Since kite tau yang baby’s heartbeat is faster than adult so if perut trase denyut2 tue might be sebab baby tengah hiccup laa. Some research said baby experience hiccup sebab dia tengah practice the lungs for breathing. Tapi bila banyak fluid masuk dlm lung baby, tue yang jadi hiccup. Since this is absolutely normal, nothing to worry about. So enjoy jelaa layan our baby’s movement :)

Okaylaa, if ade info lagi nanti kite sharing2 ye.

Till then.
