Kicks, Wiggles & Gas: Welcome to Baby’s Dance Party
Tiny dancer in your belly. Big feels.
Pregnancy is often painted as this ethereal, goddess-like experience. But let's be real, even the most graceful among us will find ourselves doing an unintentional cha-cha to the bathroom to get relief from what we thought was a charming baby kick, only to realize it's, ahem, gas. Cue the reality check: welcome to the second trimester, where your belly isn't the only thing that's full...of surprises!
As your baby turns up the volume on their in-utero dance party, we're here to be your DJ, guiding you through the best and worst parts of creating life while dodging stray feet poking under your ribs.
“Is it a kick, a belly wave, or last night's burrito saying ‘hello again’?”Let’s rock and roll through the ups and downs, focusing on the Top 5 Best Parts and the Top 5 (Hilariously) Worst Parts of this stage. Strap in—if you can still see your hips, of course—because it’s going to be a bumpy ride!
