hi all I am reading everywhere and hearing from friends that babies usually respond by kicking when we stroke the belly, play music or keep talking to it, or during loud noises. I dont find my baby responding to any of these. I do feel kicks at other times but not as a response. I do get upset and wonder if anything is wrong. Has someone faced something like this??
hi meenu, There is nothing to worry about.babies sleep at different times and ur baby not responding doesn't mean something wrong since u feel the kicks other times.babies respond as they remember the sounds they frequently hear.some babies respond immediately and some observe and remember.seems like ur baby is more observing like my kid.my kid is the same as a baby and always used to observe everything keenly and then remembers and imitates it later.
Op as baby is kicking you don't have to worry about anything. Also they are unique.they does not act as in the book. My baby does not responce to music. even I touch, baby respond sometime sometime not. Sometime respond to loud sound not always. Just check if baby is kicking. Mommies get tensed to every moment of the baby it's common. enjoy your pregnancy
Dear op as long as your baby is kicking there is nothing to worry. Each baby is unique , if you are worried then play music during babies most active time..babies sleep a lot in tummies , may be you are trying when it's sleeping? ?... I completely understand what you are going through first time mothers or in fact any would be mother will worry a lot. ...There are mothers who wake up at night even if baby as.such breaths different. .keep aside your worries and enjoy your pregnancy that's the best gift you will give u r child
Thank you for the response guys. Made me feel better. When i read about the baby responding to us, i kept eagerly waiting for it to happen. But it never responds, but happily kicks at all other times. Like you all said i believe every baby is different
