when the baby moves it hurts

When the baby moves it can be painful. My stomache feels stiff. A week ago I felt the baby moved and it was more like spasms I claimed it as hiccups. Every time this tense feeling happens it does happen before the baby moves. So I do believe this is the cause of the pain. I have had an apointment today and I didn't express how painful or. Oncerning its been, but I also found the baby is still breeched, any input? I am starting to see my doctor every two weeks so ill talk about this more with him, but has anyone else been able to relate? I dont remember this with my first at all. Hiccups were never concerning and the movement was more enjoyable.

Yay! Saw my doctor, the baby flipped out of breech over night. We are ruling that to be the cause of the pain and fluttering. Pregnancies have momenta were we cant explain some concerns, but the baby looks well. So i cant complain.

Theyre all lasting pain. Its not just a sudden movement but a good two three minutes of pressure and the spasms are like butterfly flutters.

I know what you mean. My son is the same way. He just moves really hard compared to my daughter. There's times he even makes me jump from how hard he kicks. And yeah, some are really painful

Yeah, thank you. This isnt a sharp shooting pain, ligament pain, but actual pressure like the babies pressing against my skin so hard.

I'm not sure if we feel the same thing but sometimes I feel a bit of pain when the baby kicks hard. I think maybe they hit a nerve or something cause I will get a pain that goes horizontal across under my belly button area. Its just a few seconds at a time but its enough to stop me from whatever I'm doing. And I notice it tends to be through the hiccup rhythem.  Not sure if its anything to worry about..maybe journal it and let your doctor know next visit if it keeps happening?
