I feel the same way sometimes because my son will stick his foot waaay out of my belly when im turning to get on my side and I get scared to roll over. Lol but usually he goes to town on the bed or anything that touches my belly for that matter. But I dont think we can hurt them that easy, ive heard it takes a pretty good impact to hurt them. But idk, im no doctor. Lol

the baby is supposed to move alot and ur not squishing it at all. Layin on ur side is what ur supposed to do, dont lay flat on ur back, its bad for ur spine cus baby puts pressur on it and can cause problems. So relax about ur baby moving alot, if its not moving much or at all then u can worry.

I understand, when I lay on my side my baby starts kicking on that side. So I switch sides, and she kicks on thagt side too. But I dont worry. I turn on my back then eventually get back on my sides. Im def not losing any sleep over it.
