Stubborn baby?

I'm 5 months and I'll be 6 months next week. So my son's movements has gotten more stronger and more frequent so when I feel and see him move I get excited and touch my belly or talk to him. My mom and my sister's touch it too but it's like once he feels my stomach being touched he stops moving and then it be hard to get a response from him lol. So he's kinda on the stubborn side it seems and he just moved on his own time but now he's extremely active when I'm trying to go to sleep or eating. Anybody had stubborn babies?

I'm due tomorrow but my entire pregnancy my little boy would not kick for anyone besides his Dad! Even I'd put my hand on my belly while he kicked and he'd stop lol and now his due dates tomorrow and it doesn't look like he wants to come on his own lol I definitely have a stubborn one!

I'm 27 weeks and 4 days and my little girl does this. She goes mad when i touch my belly and as soon as I tell a family member and they feel she stops moving! Or as soon as I try record it she stops moving aswel! It's like she knows lol. I've got to the point now where if she's moving around alot I don't tell anybody because somehow my little 1 knows and stops moving for them lol

I'm 35 weeks and my son does that every time anyone touched my belly except myself and his dad. I'm at the point where I don't even tell other family members when he is dancing around because they won't get a chance to feel anything

Same boat. It took over 10 weeks and a few ultrasounds to find out my little one is a girl. She does her own thing and on her own time it seems. I already see a huge difference in her compared to my first daughter.

Oh yes indeed. I am only 20 weeks and am going to be having my 7th scan due to my little one hiding or recoiling every time the sonographer puts their equipment on my belly.
