3rd Trimester

LO movement very low?

For the past week or so I have been feeling LO move really low, pretty much in my pubic / bikini line area. I am 33 weeks. Is this normal? Has anyone have it happened to them or its one of those alarming thing I should call my OB about? Does this mean the baby dropped? I am FTM so not sure what is normal. Thanks for any help!! I tried googling this but haven't had much luck

Re: LO movement very low?

  • Yep it's normal.  Your LO is getting bigger and running out of space.  My LO is head down so I feel small movements down in my pelvis and hiccups then his butt around my belly button with his legs near my lungs/ribcage.

    When you "drop" your whole belly will look different.  LO can be head down without "dropping".

  • Yes, it's normal.  My LO has been head down since at least 33 weeks and I've been feeling a lot of movement down there.  I think it's her head scooting around.  That's also where I feel hiccups.  I feel movement higher too, but not as often.  Although the higher movement is more noticeable (stronger).

  • I never had that with my first two but I'm having it with this baby cause she's breech. Are you feeling a lot of movement on the top area of your belly as well or only down low?

    I feel movement both on the top area  -kicks and what feels like LO rolling in there and the ones down below. I was in L&D for observation ar 30 weeks and the dr said she was head down. I wonder i she flipped ?
  • That's really normal.

  • Thanks everyone! I had a PTL scare at 29-30 weeks so I am on high alert for anything that feels out of ordinary. I am grateful for all the responses :)
  • I feel this too. I feel punches down low near my pelvis and kicks and wiggles up high. If your LO is head down her hands are in that area too. :)
