Where is baby located?

edited January 2015 in June 2015 Moms
I am 18.5 weeks and I am not sure where baby is located? I can feel him kicking all the way up to my belly button, but when I lay flat I place my hand right above my pubic bone and it almost feels like a baseball? It's perfectly rounded on the top? I remember reading this stuff in what to expect when you're expecting, but I don't have it anymore. And my apologies if this has been asked, I didn't find anything in the search or on Google lol thanks!

    From https://www.pregnancy-weekbyweek.com/pregnancy-week-18.htm

    Your Body's Development
    By pregnancy week 18 you can probably feel your uterus just at or just below your navel. If you are having trouble differentiating your uterus from the rest of your belly don't worry. Your doctor is skilled in detecting subtle changes and the size and shape of your uterus, and may even allow you to feel your uterus along with them. You definitely have a little tummy to show off and may have gained up to 15 pounds by pregnancy week 18. This is perfectly normal. Some women will have gained more and some less. By this time your uterus

    I'm 17.2 and was at my OB on Thursday...we were having a hard time finding the heartbeat and eventually did an ultrasound....turns out baby was waaay up above my belly button. Not down low as they suspected.

    I'm 17w4d and I've been feeling baby all over the place. One min down by my pubic line to the right, the next min up to the left of my belly button. Crazy. I don't remember my girls moving around like that this early on but I'm just happy to feel baby moving, best feeling ever :)

    at my a/s on Saturday the tech laughed and told me that the entire scan my baby was using my bladder as a trampoline.  Based on where she was holding the u/s wand, it was still pretty low.  Maybe 2 inches below my belly button.

    I am 20 weeks and mine has been way above my belly button most of the pregnancy. He was doing somersaults during my entire ultrasound.

    Based on my check-up on Monday (I'm 19w3d) my midwife said my uterus is just up under my belly button at this point, but she found the heartbeat still pretty low. I think baby has plenty of room to move around still!
