WHEN THE BABY STARTS TO SHOW
A pregnant woman first wonders when she will be able to feel her baby move, and once she already notices it … Her question turns to: when will someone else be able to feel my baby move? A pregnant woman can begin to feel her baby from week 20 and it will be from week 24 when she will be able to feel him perfectly.
Once this period begins, more time can pass for others to notice and share this experience with the partner, friends or family. It is sometime between the 28th and 32nd weeks of pregnancy when the people around you will be able to feel the baby’s movements when they put their hands on your belly at just the right time and in the right place.
Even if you sit your baby for several weeks, the little one will have to be a little bigger so that others can feel his movements in your belly just by putting their hands on your belly. However, the movement can be sporadic and it may even appear that your baby is preventing anyone from feeling it. You may have to be patient and wait until I am further along in the pregnancy. Baby can be begged! Your little one won’t move when you want it to move … it will move when it wants to!
LESS LIKELY THAT YOUR BABY WILL NOTICE OTHERS
There are some factors that can make other people less likely to feel your baby move.
- Placenta previa . If the placenta is located in the front of your uterus, your baby’s movements will need to be bigger and stronger so that they feel across the placenta. Usually this will also make you feel your baby’s first movements later and others may even be left with the urge to feel it …
- The position of the baby. Babies can opt for some positions that can make their kicks hardly noticeable even though they move. This is not a bad thing, but if the kicks are not noticed and you have family or friends who insist on putting their hands on your belly without you wanting them to be ‘fingering you’ longer, you can clearly tell them that there are times that it is not noticeable for a long time. time and when it moves, you’ll let it know.
ALLOW OTHERS TO FEEL HOW YOUR BABY MOVES
You may be excited to share your baby’s kicks with your partner, family, and friends. But perhaps other people who are not so close to you also want to experience this feeling. They may want to touch your body and this makes you feel uncomfortable, and it is totally normal.
If your partner wants to touch your belly or a relative to notice the baby, it is better that they do so in the privacy of the home to prevent other people, outside of your emotional comfort, from joining the intimate experience. You may need to establish some rules like deciding how many times they can touch your belly, such as once per visit. In addition, you decide where it plays, when and for how long.
