So Im about to be 27 weeks, when I stand sometimes,or sit upright I feel like the top of my stomach, the part thats right underneath my sternum feels like its Being stretched, I feel like I até a huge meal. Like very very full. Im also feel a bit suffocated, breathing space in my lungs feels minimal. Is this normal? Is she just getting bigger and moving on up.  Man Im uncomfortable.

This one is apparently facing backwards. When she kicks low, I actually feel it in my butt. Lmao

I know what you mean. Even with the IUGR I have the same feeling. I have a short torso and the feet between the ribs is painful. And btw...even with number 5 I have moments of panic (you've seen the posts). It's ok to be nervous. It just shows that you love and care about your sweet baby. ;)

Normal. Baby is crowding out the rest of the space in there. You can use an ice pack for the soreness. I would tell you to feel better but, the bad news is, the baby is going to take up more room as time goes on. Sorry honey. :*

From what I have heard and experienced (this is my 2nd pregnancy) all of ur symptoms are normal. Ur uterus is pushing on ur other organs ,so by now all of ur urgans are displaced. There is only so much room in the abdominal cavity and since ur baby needs a lot of that room to grow, the rest of the organs have to move ard & adjust. The shortness of breath, the gas,and feelimg full quickly are all symptoms of misplaced organs that have a heavy uterus pressing on them. BC the way ur body looks at it,the baby is more important than ur stomach staying put,lol.
