all of baby's kicks are very low and HURT

I don't remember my son kicking me like this when I was pregnant with him. These are debilitating punches/kicks to the vagina from the inside. I only feel him super low, and it catches me off guard. A few times I've gasped really loud in public, and almost cried. 

I'm not being a wuss. I have a high tolerance for pain. But, this is ridiculous. I am going to talk to my OB about it tomorrow...but I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it. I'm only 32 weeks...so 8  more weeks of this? 

It happens about 30 times I day, I'd guess. All low jabs and all very painful.

Anyone else???

    This happens to me all the time too.  Between my LO riding really low and the karate action I too find myself gasping every now and then.  Of course then I have to double check for tightening in my stomach in case it's a contraction not a kick...but so far they've just been kicks.  I feel for you!

    I felt those for a few days & I know just what your talking about! I live with my parents and they just look at me look I'm crazy whenever it happens. It is so painful!!! I agree with you that you should talk to your OB. Let us know what they say?!

    Me! I get this and I agree it hurts SOO bad. I feel like he is playing soccer with my insides and let me tell you I have let out a few squeals also. And it takes my breath away sometimes. DS was all in my ribs but this pregnancy is way diff. Doc said it's just the way I am carrying this time. he was all in front and now he's dropped and very low! Ouch!

    My LO feels like he's using my bladder/vagina as a trampoline.  Not comfy at all.  Currently my baby is breech so this is probably why.  Hopefully he'll turn soon. For now, I think I'm making some pretty strange faces at times too...

    I'm right there with you!

    I'll be standing talking to students in my classroom trying not to cringe as I get burning shooting pains through my vjayjay. It is a good exercise in facial self control I guess. I'm really hoping LO settles head down soon...

    Yep!  I was just thinking that my son was NOT this low this early.  I have been kicked in (what feels lke) my cervix many, many times over the last few days...ouch!

    I had/have the same thing!  I find that the yoga ball works wonders to move the baby into a diff. position- or at least get off/out of my pelvis. I also am doing prenatal pilates and that helps a ton too.

     Best position if you don't have a yoga ball to sit on and roll around- cat/cow from Yoga poses.  If you don't know what I'm referring to, doing a google search should bring it up. 

    I swear it helps bring some relief to the discomfort!

    I get these too.  It feels like the little guy is going to literally fall out of me with the amount of pressure he is putting down there.  I talked to my OB about it and she told me that is common in 2nd pregnancies since your body has already stretched and done this before.  I get the really hard kicks and punches too - I attribute that to this baby being a boy and bigger where my first was a girl and smaller.

    Today it felt like my LO was trying to come out.  I'd get a foot against the ribs and a LOT of pressure down below at the same time.  Not very comfortable when you are walking.
