Hi all i am 34 weeks +6 days and my baby boys moves alot, and i know that is good but some of them hurt so much, they are like sharp pains, some times it is unbearable, and makes it hard for me to move myself. This has been going on for a few weeks now and it getting worse. Any tips on what i can do?

I haven't found anything yet, I think it's just one of those 'wait it out' things. Sorry! -------------

^^ what she said unfortunately! As they get bigger they get stronger and have less room to move which is bad news for us! This wee girl is doing the exact same thing, so at least you're not alone  ------------- DS 8 DD 6 DS 4 DD 2 |

It should resolve itself in the next 5 or 6 weeks.

I had the same thing. Both of my babies were really active with strong movements and would cause me a lot of pain. I just had to put up with it, sorry! -------------

yeah, just means you have a lovely strong healthy bubba in there. my DD was the same and my ribs felt bruised from the inside near the end of pregnancy.. all you can do is maybe try to find positions that are slightly more comfy- on all fours will give bubs more room so might not hurt quite as much? or on your side? just know bubs will be out before you know it and strangely, youll miss that feeling of being kicked to bits! lol i know i do- but im a weirdo haha. GL for your upcoming birth! x ------------- My little miracle 6/1/2011 My angel in Heaven 9/5/14 http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Poke him back 
I get a lot of painful movements with this one, the poking ones I gently push back in but the ones that scrape across the tum are annoying to say that least. I'm with Mrs H lol ------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

Yep, me too. They're pretty well protected in there, I don't think you could do any harm with a bit of (even fairly rough!) prodding! -------------

Haha my DH was always scared to poke my tummy, but now sometimes he pushes so hard it's uncomfortable for me!

I used to push back too. lol. Sometimes they would push theings out so far it would really hurt, so i'd push them back in. Or when i wanted them to move i'd give them a poke. -------------
