Is your baby already choosing sides?

Of your stomach I mean. I swear this kid has lived entirely on my right side the past few months. I've had about 3 hours of her being in the middle of my stomach for months, Why does she want to climb out of my side!? Why?!

This kiddo has spent pretty much my entire pregnancy on my right side. His/her back and bottom are on that side, and his/her feet kick my left side.

LO resides on my left side. Always has.

DD was always on my left side. I would wake up and sit up and she was there even when laying on my left side she would roll so her feet would push her up. This little guy lives on my right side kicking me in the left his butt pushing up.

My LO generally hangs out on my right side. My friend who is a med student told me that they usually sit opposite the placenta, so I'm guessing my placenta is on the left maybe?

Mine has always been on the right side. It wasn't as noticeable until a few months ago, but my tummy is always lopsided, and he's always under my ribs on my right side, or punching my hip bone!

I have a right-sider, too. Butt and feet are constantly poking me (including as I type this) on my upper right side. Fortunately, he hasn't gotten caught up in my ribs at this point.

Yep, she's pretty much hung out on the left side, head down and facing my spine for most of my pg.  I'm hoping this means that I'll have an easy delivery since she's hung out in the optimal birth position for so long.  The bad thing about this position is that it makes getting pictures of her face impossible.

Lately she's taken to sticking her butt out after I've eaten a meal.  I can sit back in a chair and you can see this lump sticking out of my left side just below my ribs.

Thankfully I have yet to get kicked or punched in or under the ribs.  I think it's because my placenta is at the top of my uterus so it acts as a cushion against any rib attacks.

Butt and back on my left side. Feet are under my right rib cage.

Can I tell you how jealous I am of you lefties?  I've been doing everything I can to get him onto the OFP but so far I'm stuck with a rightie.  I'm concerned that means I have  back labor in my future.

Almost my entire pregnancy, since I started feeling the baby move at least (at 18 wks) this baby has been on the right side about 90% of the time.

This sounds exactly like my LO!

LO loves my right side and has for quite some time. I can almost always feel his butt and back up on my right side.
