fetal movement

[camdenmom]

I am 31wks and I knnow mt baby is head down. I only feels movements in my pelvic area. I can't figure out why i dont feel anything up top so where are his feet. is he that scrunched up that everything happens down below. Has anyone else experienced anythung similar?

Yup, definitely do what Catabloo said, it really does help. My son was face up and I had horrible back labor, I spent a lot of my time in the delivery room on all fours trying to get him to turn. I have started doing it already so that I hopefully wont have the same issues.

this could also mean your baby is back to back, thats what my little one done. er painful birthis. get on all fours and get rocking and baby will get into perfect position for birth. midwife and dr told me to do this from 30 weeks.

Same here!  Most of the movement that I feel is in the public area (lots of fun bc it makes me constantly feel like I have to pee BAD) and his butt side to side on each side of my belly button.  My dr. says its normal too - little guy is running out of room to do all of his acrobatics in there! :-)

I'm almost 32 weeks, and experiencing the same as you. I went to my last OB appointment and I told him I was sure the baby was breech because he was always kicking by my pelvic area and he said the baby's legs are so scrunched he can't really kick anymore, occasionally I'll feel kicking, but that's about it. Also I feel his butt move back and forth between my ribs, but he said it's normal not to feel kicking when their legs are scrunched up like that.
