Pain when baby moves?

I'm 32.5 weeks pregnant and lately noticed 'sometimes' when she moves in certain areas, it hurts. I can tell it feels like stretching muscle pain being stretched by her movements. It's not pleasant at all. Also it feels like she is trying to dig her way out sometimes and I can tell when she's at the exit door door down there. Kinda scary since I don't want her coming out yet so I get on my all fours to try and distract and move her.

Anyone else have any light to shed on this ? Thanks

I have those to. I'm 33 weeks and sometimes it just really hurts. When I straighten my back more it helps. I to like watching her though. I would rather it be painful than not feeling it.

thanks, Jenn! Glad I'm not the only one. Yea, I feel like the worlds biggest puffer fish trying to breath thru all sorts of sensations due to this pregnancy. I do shift positions by getting on the floor and arching my back in hopes it helps and usually does. Walking around swaying her to sleep is a great distraction for her and me.lol her feet get too close to my ribs and that discomfort and pressure is annoying. I have to stretch up my arms and torso to give more room and hope she moves her feet and sometimes rubbing her feet helps move them too.

I definitely with you on this one.  I am 32 weeks today and it seems like she is moving more and more everyday.  Sometimes it is more than other days, but when she is doing her sommersaults....OUCH!  Its more uncomfortable than anything!  I love to watch her move though.  It makes me feel better because I had a friend tell me that once their movement starts to die down, it means there is no more room for them to move and the time is coming!  If your baby's movement gets really uncomfortable, try standing or changing positions.  That always helps me!
