A member asked:
I'm just starting to feel baby move but when he kicks or moves it tends to hurt a little or is it just shocking first movements?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: When the baby kicks, he may trigger a contraction of the uterus that you are feeling or just a shocky feeling from the kick. Nothing to worry about!
