Is it possible to make the baby jump?

Rose • Fiancée & Mommy

I'm 36 weeks and my baby is a little wriggler, I love the feeling.

Yesterday my SO jumped on a left over balloon from the baby shower to pop it, it made such a loud bang and my baby literally jumped inside me, he kicked his legs and jerked out so sharply it actually hurt me.

We felt so bad after 😔 my fiancé came and kissed my belly and was asking me worridly if he had scared him.

I know they can hear , but could the bang really have made him jump?
