Originally Posted By mickeymeg =) A page, I have never got one of those on LP before =) Thanks for answering. I am still just feeling little wiggles really, but they are starting to get stronger. Every so often I think there is one that my husband might be able to feel but as soon as he touches my tummy baby decides its nap time. I am at nearly 27 weeks at the moment so hopefully they will start getting stronger and more frequent soon. If they are not significantly stronger by the next time I see my doctor I will ask her if this is something I should be concerned about yet.

Originally Posted By mickeymeg its just a little un-nerving once you start to feel them move to suddenly not feel them for any length of time. I keep trying to convince myself that baby really is moving, its just that I am too so I don't always feel it =)
Originally Posted By disney pete any kicks yet meg? weve just had our last scan and still cant tell sex of baby so will have to wait for surprise do you know what your having or dont you want to know?
Originally Posted By mickeymeg Still just little wiggles, only very occasionally is there anything strong enough to call a kick. I see my doctor on Monday so I will be sure to ask her how normal this is. We have decided we don't want to find out what it is. Why spoil one of life's biggest surprises =)

I saw her yesterday and asked if the lack of large movement was anything to be concerned about and she assured me that it was perfectly normal and some babies are just more active than others or you can feel them more or less depending on their exact placement. So all seems to be going well at the moment. How is yours doing ?
Originally Posted By disney pete we are supposed to be 8th january but baby is breach and placenta is lying below baby so kristine may have to go in 2 weeks early to have a cesarian but we are hoping they will both shift so all can go normal,everyone keeps saying it looks like you will have a girl but the way this lil thing kicks it could well be a boy,they also told us if baby is small you feel all movements but if a bit bigger theres not much room for them to manouvre,all in all we dont have long to go do we?
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Glad to hear all is well, mickeymeg! And Pete, here's hoping your little peanut gets turned around right so Kristine doesn't need a C-section. And here's a friendly reminder on behalf of all the LP aunties and uncles. . . when it gets close to your due dates, please assign a friend the task of posting the birth news here!
Originally Posted By mickeymeg I will try to find someone to post =) I hope baby turns around for you guys, c sections do not sound like any fun. You still have a bit yet so hopefully baby will take up gymnastics soon and do a flip =)
Originally Posted By disney pete whoo hoo went to midwife today and baby has turned around just have to hope placenta gets out the way and we are good to go for a normal birth. hows your lil junior meg any big kicks or movements yet?
Originally Posted By mickeymeg great news ! mine is still doing well so far as I know. Still no big moves though, just little ones. I think this is going to be a very quiet sleepy baby.
Originally Posted By Tinkeroon I love reading all about your babies you two! Glad to hear your baby turned around disney pete! My first born was in breach position as well, however, she never turned and I did have a caesarean. All was well. She has, to this day (she's now 30 yrs. old!), been very contrary. I guess she just started out that way and didn't know anything different. LOL She was not only breach but doing the splits with one leg up and one leg down. So it's a real good thing, for both of us, that I didn't have a normal birth. Hopefully your wife will have no problems delivering! mickeymeg...both my babies were small, under 7lbs., full term, and my largest was a whopping 18" long. And neither of them were big kickers. I worried so much during my pregnancies, always trying to get them to move around. But they were both very healthy babies and both were caesarean births. I wish much love and luck and blessings on you both as well as your families. Looks like it won't be long for either of you to welcome baby into the family.
Originally Posted By mickeymeg Thanks Tinkeroon, that is reassuring to hear. Even though my doctor keeps telling me not to worry it is hard when everyone else says how active their babies were (or are).
Originally Posted By disney pete thanks Tink will try and keep everyone updated here,we are now thinkin our baby will be a footballer as he/she kicks a lot of the day and night yes indeed we are on the countdown us then meg and then mrs LP (rebekah)
Originally Posted By Rebekah Hey disneypete and mickeymeg. Just found this thread. Our little guy hasn't made any motions just yet that are strong enough to force a remote off. But I'm amazed by how quickly he seems to be growing. Mickeymeg, my little guy moves in spurts. He is super-hyper for about 15 minutes, maybe twice a day. I really don't feel it unless I'm laying down or relaxing. I'm just now beginning to feel him moving when I'm not focusing on him. I know its easy to say and hard to do.. but if the doctor isn't worried than you should relax, too. =) Some of things that are amazing to me as I start the third trimester.... How intense the heartburn is. How full I feel and yet how hungry -- makes sense since my stomach has been relocated to my ribcage *ha ha*. How quickly I can go from not needing to go to the bathroom to I MUST FIND ONE NOW. *once again makes sense when he decides to use it as a pillow or kickball* I hope your pregnancies continue to go well. We look forward to hear about your beautiful new ones. Rebekah.

Originally Posted By mickeymeg 2 weeks ! Wow time flies eh. Could be any time now =) I hope everything goes according to plan for you. I am still recovering from eating way too much last night. Other than that I am doing fairly well. I feel a little huge and slow, but there is only about a month left. My baby is still not super active, but my doctor continues to assure me that this is normal and nothing to be concerned about as long as there is little movements every so often. Keep us posted about how you are guys are doing. -Meg
