Is it normal for babies movements to be painful at 38 weeks? Every time baby moves I find myself stopping whatever I’m doing to take deep breaths because his movements are so painful that if I don’t stop and focus on my breathing I hold my breath. Not just his kicks but any movement at all.. he’s been more active the last few days and I’ve had cramping. I’ve also noticed more leaking (not sure if its increased discharge or not) I have a midwife appointment on Wednesday should I bring up the pain I feel when he’s moving?
