Thread: Movement higher yet?

This LO of mine is still squirmy VERY low. I thought since my uterus is growing and there's room higher perhaps she'd start to take advantage. Some of those low kicks are insane. Just wondering if anyone's LO is starting to move higher yet or still staying pretty low??

Most movement is still pretty low, but once in a while I get a punch up near my belly button. Isn't it fun?

I get them everywhere! Some are pretty low. Sometimes they almost feel like they are hitting or kicking my hips. And alot of the time I feel kicks about a hand lenght under my ribs.

Same here! Just in the last few days I've felt the ones near my belly button, but most are still very low. A lot more frequent now though.

my baby is sitting breech right now so all the kicks are down low in the bladder and cervix. I get some movement higher, but its not too often yet.

I think that's the case with me as well. During our u/s she was breech then she flipped head down then back again. When she was breech I felt the kicks but when she wasn't I didn't. Now that I'm a bit further along I feel them but they are very light when they're a bit higher. The low ones can make me jump. So I think it's when she's breech that she gets me good. LOL!

I get them really low also.

Started out pretty low @ 16 weeks but now its moving towards my belly button a lot- and thats the place where i can see my belly moving. She's definately a lot more "active" then Brody was!!

I was just thinking the same thing today!!! I feel all of mine very low still! I know when they did the ultrasound that she was facing down, so her legs and her arms where both free to kick that way! Im sure we will all feel them higher soon and wish they would stay out of our ribs LOL!

I still feel most of mine around belly button, and sometimes i feel like hes kicking right under my ribs-and im not sure how high up my uterus is supposed to be at this point, seems really high when that happens-and sometimes i feel movement really low, so i think hes head down and i feel fingers way low and feet higher up...although there are times when it seriously feels like hes kicking straight down while im sitting towards my butt...
