Rhythmic breathing?

Question

Anyone else feel like their belly just starts twitching or thumping in one area and have it sat for a little while? I’ve read other people say something about it being rhythmic breathing but I don’t understand how that is what it is. And at what point is it something to worry about?

Answer

Actually in the third trimester, it's not uncommon for you to see the baby doing practice breaths, its amazing to watch

Answer

Could be hiccups but if you can see the slow up and down almost smooth movements that are rhythmic it can be baby practicing his/her breathing. I’m 35 weeks with baby #3 and my baby gets hiccups all the time, but noticed this different movement recently and asked my OB and that was what she told me it wAs- baby was practicing her breathing skills! So cool to watch!

Answer

It’s hiccups. But they also say that hiccups are how they practice breathing. So both?
