I have noticed this once before, and she's doing it again now... Where I believe her back is, on the right side of my bump, there is this steady, rhythmic, rise-and-fall movement. It feels, for all the world, like she is breathing (ie, maybe practice breaths?).
It is definitely not hiccups - she gets those a couple times a day, and this is quite different. It's much faster, constant, and it's not jerky/sudden with pauses in between the way hiccups are. It is a more pronounced rise and fall, but faster than the way an adult usually breathes... It's at the pace an adult might breathe if they'd been exercising.
It'll go on for a few minutes at a time, then stop, then start again a few minutes later. It's done that a few times in the past 10 min or so... She seems to have stopped now.
Anybody else ever have this?? Could I be feeling her practice breaths? I have an extremely snug/tight bump, where it is quite easy to see/feel her movements from the outside (DH has been able to feel her for many months).
