For many, this is among the most joyful experiences of pregnancy. For eager soon-to-be parents, this evidence that their soon-to-be child is developing and healthy is blissful. For the mother and those close to her, this can sometimes mark the point when the expected baby begins to feel "real." They knew there was something inside her growing belly, some vague invisible thing that will eventually resemble a baby. When they recognize that the thumping inside her comes from tiny knees, elbows, fists and feet, suddenly they realize it already seems like a baby, even if they cannot see it yet. It vividly appears in their imagination: it [[CutenessOverload becomes cute]].

And like much of pregnancy, it can be equally amazing and inconvenient for the expectant mother. Her changing body can feel strained or tender, so getting roughly pummeled from the inside can take her breath away. She might endure restlessness and SleepDeprivation as her enlarged uterus makes it difficult to get comfortable, so if the occupant of that uterus throws a late-night party using her cramped abdomen [[GroinAttack and pelvis]] as a dance floor, it's going to keep her unpleasantly awake. Because they are ultimately harmless, such aggravations may be PlayedForLaughs to show the awkwardness and discomfort of pregnancy in an amusing or endearing way. They may be comically-{{Exaggerated}} so that the kicks are powerful enough to assault someone ''else'', like the BumblingDad.
