Feet in my ribs!!

Today the doc was able to palpate my bump and pinpoint where baby's head, arms and legs are.  The last few days the right side of my rib cage has gotten a beat down and sure enough, doc said that's where baby's feet are and her head is hanging low on the left side.   It's so cute to be able to feel what is where!  Anybody else in tune with baby's position?

    I think my little man is hanging like a little monkey in my ribs!  His butt is definitely just under my ribs, and his head seems to switch between my right and left hip. 

    Dr didn't feel at my last appt (I was a little disappointed) so hopefully next week!

    Oh yeah!  I've figured that my little guy is already head down, and that was confirmed by my doc today.  I know because his little tush is often sticking out just below my right ribs!  He'll also slide his feet across the top of my stomach and sometimes I can actually press right on the bottom of his foot.  So cool!!

  • Head down and feet are jammed up in my ribs.
  • head down, butt up, but legs not in my ribs.  they are all stretched out where they come in front of baby's face.  I have yet to feel him more than a few inches above my bellybutton!

  • I asked today at my 28 week appt if she could tell because I am in such pain by the end of the night I was wondering what part is actually shoved up in my right rib.  She kind of laughed and said not at 28 weeks.  She did try and said the babe is sitting sideways.  When I told her I was wondering because the pain was sooo bad she laughed and said you still have 12 weeks to go it's just going to get worse.  I wasn't to happy with that comment.

  • His head is down and he has his feet/heels up in my ribs on my right side toward my middle!  He doesnt really kick them, but it seems like he tries to stretch and he'll push his feet up in my ribs.  When he does this his head goes down on my bladder!

  • My LO is lying transverse in my abdomen. It feels kind of yucky when I lay on my side at night because her little feet press into my side toward the mattress. Love it!

  • His position changes pretty regularly with his head remaining down. Sometimes I feel his feet in my Side but mostly in my rib cage. The other day I put my hand where I felt him pushing me and very distinctly felt a little foot. This afternoon I could feel his back pushing against the right side of my belly and I followed it and could feel where his legs were and then where his knees were but lost his feet. It's pretty cool.
