Anyone's LO riding super low?

My LO is really low.  I feel him kick constantly but it normally is towards my pubic bone. I had my anatomy scan yesterday and the U/S lady commented on how low he was.  I asked if that was okay/normal since DS1 was low but not that low.  She basically shrugged it off and said he can go where he wants.  Helpful, but not really lol.  Is anyone else have a low baby too?  I don't know why it bugs me so much! I get paranoid he's going to want to come out early or something lol

Re: Anyone's LO riding super low?

  • Definitely got a low rider over here too.  And now I have a song stuck in my head.
    Our family is complete!

  • She is kicking down there right now. Today for the first time I felt her more towards the middle. But generally, she hangs out down there!

  • I think between your long torso and the fact that you're carrying low, it just is what it is.  My torso isn't nearly as long as yours but I've carried all 3 of mine low, real low.  I never get a cute round basketball belly, I just get like a pointy torpedo coming out of my lower stomach haha.  Anyway, neither of my previous two pregnancies came early, so I think you are probably fine.  Just less work you have to do when it comes time to push :)

  • from HDBD I was like WHOAAA at how low @sailortink 's bump is!
    Everyone thought I was having a boy from that bump!! I have a super long torso though so there is so much room.
    Oh yea! Your little girl is low too, I remember now.  I, unfortunately, have a shorter torso so it looks like he's riding higher but it's just all my guts. Yum.

    my little dude is so high he is squishing my guts up top all the time, but I never have the waking up to pee thing!  maybe they missed their memos.
    No waking up to pee?! Wa. No fair.

  • Yup, totally got a low one over here but all of my LO's have been this way. MW commented last week how he's wasting so much space being crammed in my pelvis but he likes to be all scrunched up anyways.

  • Ya, our little man is riding low. I get a lot of movement in the pelvic area and have a lot of pelvic floor pressure. It's a different feeling, both girls were up a little higher.

  • Yeah, I've been noticing this lately myself. Anytime I feel movement it's really low, sometimes I start freaking out about where I feel this kid kicking, but then he or she stops and I relax again. Pfft.

  • Another low baby (girl) here too. She is wayyyy down...I've been feeling her move mostly right above my pubic bone. At the a/s she was happily hanging out down there, with her feet by her head in a funky yoga pose.  ;)

    This is me, but I don't know what the LO is yet. This baby is really high and my indigestion is getting bad!!

  • Yep my LO is low as well, feels like she's using my bladder as a trampoline.
  • Definitely low here too. All movement I have felt is in the pelvic area... with DD I never bought maternity underware... I kinda thought it was silly. NOW I get it and need to get some stat!
    Tried for 2 years before diagnosed with DOR and low Progesterone. MC at 16 weeks in June 2010 (Told Placenta Previa contributed to the loss)
    Mommy to one darling & amazing little girl :) Born September 9th 2011 (C-Section at 38 weeks for Placenta Previa)

    Surprise!! EDD 12/13/13 (Hoping for a VBAC!) Off home bed rest  and now just monitoring a large SCH. Stable in size but not going away. SHRINK PLEASE!

  • I'm almost 22 weeks and my LO is always really low. When I was this far with DS he was alot higher. I'm sure it will happen soon with her!
  • Yup I'm really low too, I was starting to think it was weird but I'm glad a lot of you are the same!
