Fetal movement

Howdy :-)  I'm 19+5wks along, second baby.  I've felt my baby moving quite often the past two weeks.  Sometimes though it feels like it's digging in my lower parts of my uterus.  It's painful!!  I know it's baby movement because I'll feel a roll, or kicks,  then scraaape! Ow!  It usually happens when I'm sitting up.  I'll lay down or stand up and it helps.  Anyone else have this?

I'm also 19 weeks and 5 days :) and I feel her move all the time. But sometimes it feels like she's pushing on my uterus. Like she will punch me and the just keep her hand there and push.. have you felt anything like that? I would say its her foot, but I just had an ultrasound yesterday and the feeling I get is right where her hands were in the ultrasound.

Its normal. Its because of the position the baby is in. Totally normal.
