Do you respond to the kicks?

Question

When your little munchkin kicks, do you respond in any way? Poke back, talk, rub your belly? I'm just curious...sometimes I just watch my belly jump and try to sit as quiet as possible. Other times I poke back or tap on my belly wherever he's kicking.... I think he moves less when I respond and more when I just watch....what about you?

Answer

I do the same I watch quietly as my daughter kicks but if I react she stops and also when I'm recording of i use flash she will not move but if I turn off flash she moves she knows she's being stalked lol love my princess!

Answer

Sometimes I do, normally just rub my belly but if I'm at work I can't always respond. Sometimes my baby boy will kick me super hard or head butt my cervix and then I'll gasp and normally try and talk him into stopping hahah

Answer

Yes same with me!

Answer

I usually talk to her and lightly place my hands where I can feel her moving. She never seems to stop wiggling in response to that, but if people have to push on my belly to find her, then she hides for a while and kicks my insides instead of my belly lol.

Answer

I don't respond, because he stops moving when I respond LoL so I sit there and watch.

Answer

I do those, and sometimes he kicks me so hard I jump lol

Answer

I like to watch for a bit,  but when she stops I put my hand where I can feel her and she kicks my hand lol

Answer

In the beginning I would respond more by tapping or poking where I felt his movements but then he would stop moving so now I just watch his movements or hold my hand on my belly. Every once in a while I still poke him back.

Answer

I poke back a lot or stick my finger in my belly button so she'll kick it. We play tag lots ♥

Answer

Seems every time Dad rubs my belly he's up for ever turning all around in there but if puts his hand back the baby stops because of this he hasn't felt too many movements but has seen the flips and turns.
