There is no way that you can feel the baby pulling on the umbilical cord. There are no nerves in it or the placenta so no feeling can be felt. She is probably feeling ligaments stretching or the general twinges which come along with pregnancy.

Weird! I can't feel it, maybe one day when I'm further along?
