the last few days baby has been wriggling around like mad and sticking hands feet and bum out but sometimes on my right hand side when she moves i have heard like a little crack/pop sound (like when you pop bubble wrap) it dosent hurt but i was just wondering if anyone else has had this? I sound like a right weirdo but ive worried non stop about everything. My husband has banned me from googling things as i send myself into a panic.

Agree about staying away from the google, blessing and curse that thing!

I've heard little crackle, crunchy sounds and feelings and what I describe as some kind of friction sound from limbs inside when baby moves. I don't always hear it every time though and assume it is nothing to worry about, maybe baby is getting a little cramped? I'll be interested to hear what other people say. It hasn't worried me in anyway though because I thought maybe it was a space issue. You're not a weirdo... I've been worrying about all sorts too... goes with the territory, thank goodness for this forum where are worries can be voiced and support gained. x

Hi, I'm 32 weeks and haven't heard any sounds like that, but given how much the NHS emphasises movement, I'm sure if that noises were a bad sign, we would know about it! As long as your baby is moving regularly, that's the main thing. I am worrier too! I actually just got back from a trip to the hospital because I was worried that I'd felt reduced fetal movement last night and this morning. They connected me to a machine for half an hour to monitor the baby's heart and his movements, and everything is fine. xx

Hi

I have just been to the midwife this morning (mind you im not as far on as you im 19 + 2 with twins but measuring 25 weeks ) but I had a popping noise and a weird feeling on Wednesday and asked her about it and she said it will be water. Sorry I can't suggest anything more, but I hope it helps even a little bit xxxxx

Coincidentally, I felt a popping sensation for the first time yesterday! Slightly disconcerting I agree, but since my baby kept moving throughout, and is still moving, I don't think it is cause for concern. It was intermittent for about 2 hours yesterday afternoon, but I haven't felt it since. I had felt a bit 'gassy' (nice) previously, so maybe it's to do with that ... xx
