I think I saw the baby practice breathing

[felicity]

I didn't realize this was a thing. Last night I was in bed reading with my hands propped on my belly, right over where the baby's back/butt were sticking out. My book started rhythmically bobbing up and down and I looked down and could see his back pushing against me and pulsing pretty quickly. It was definitely not hiccups because I feel those a lot, and this was much quicker and more shallow. I was worried for a second that something was wrong, then googled, and apparently this is fairly common. I called H into the room and he could see it too. The baby stopped shortly after he put his hand there, but glad he got to see it

Anyone else experience this?

Cool! I feel like I've felt something similiar, but not exactly the same, but it's like my heartbeat pulsing in my uterus. As weird as that sounds.

It was definitely a similar rhythm to a heartbeat! For about a second I thought that's what it might be until I thought about it.
