Where does your lo like to hang out?

The past few weeks mine has been all up in my rib cage.. talk about uncomfortable.. especially when she starts kicking (and punching since she likes to do both at the same time)

Re: Where does your lo like to hang out?

  • Diagonally mostly (which makes my bump very lopsided) with her head at my ribs and feet aimed at bladder.
  • Loading the player...
  • Very very low.. head down far as doc can tell and most of her body seems to be on my right side so the kicks/punched are all the way across. She's yet to come up anywhere near my ribs but she loves to kick my private parts so lots of lightening crotch haha
  • During the day when I'm sitting at my desk she likes to curl up low and on one side.  When I lay down she likes to stretch out more horizontally and comes up closer to my ribs.

  • My right side! I swear she's got her feet aimed for my right kidney and her head/shoulders pushing out to the right side of my belly button!
    So very, very lop sided and uncomfortable!
  • Almost always on my left side with his feet (or maybe fists?) aimed right at my bladder
  • I'm pretty sure he's facing inwards right now with his feet left/center. He likes to dance on my private parts and kick various internal organs!

    When I first felt him he was facing outwards so his movements were super obvious, very different sensation!
  • All over the place! Sometimes she'll hang out up in my ribs for a couple days at a time - that is the worst since it makes it so hard to breathe! Other times she'll be lower and pushing on my bladder and crotch. Today she's kind of stretched out in the middle from side to side. While in a boring meeting earlier she was keeping me entertained by kicking on one side of my belly and punching on the other side at the same time :)
  • My little boy likes to be low and in my right hip mostly.
  • My son likes to hang around on my right side he's already head down so I get some strong kicks in my ribs sometimes he's laying on his right side so I get punches on  the left side of my stomach. Had a very playful morning this morning I poke him he pokes back so cute I had little giggles.
  • Mine seems to want to be horizontal and low. I can feel her Kicks and puncheslow across my stomach.
  • She hangs out very loww , I've never felt her near my ribs
  • Very low! With his head down already. He hates anyone/anything touching the belly and will kick at it. Sometimes it hurts! He's also a bladder puncher.
    Good times.

  • @leap_frog sounds just like my baby girl. Sometimes I wish she'd use some of that upper space she has! She's been head down since 15 weeks.
  • How can you guys tell if he is head down or not? I can feel him down below or up above but I have no idea if he is kicking or punching

  • As low as he could possibly go. I 24/7 feel like I have to pee and my bladder wants to cry itself to sleep (literally, sleep is the only time I don't feel the pain). Had an ultrasound done yesterday though and his feet were up near my ribs.
  • Very low. She is breech and kicks my bladder and cervix all the time.
  • I'm previa so, breach. Butt down, head up.

    I know because of my anatomy scan like she dove right to my pubic bone region and boom his head was right there explains why he moves and I all of a sudden have to pee. I can feel when he moves his head more of the feeling of pressure and I can tell the diff from punches because he punches outward and not up or down like his kicks are alway around my ribs or upward if that makes sense.

  • My little guy is always low, I think? At my 20 week scan he had his little bootie in the air and head and arms down like he was digging or burrowing LOL. I still never know if jabs are kicks or punches...
  • @EstrogenFest due January 2nd! Could be a New Years baby :D
  • Baby loves to be on the right, head down. Feet are always kicking high up on the left. And I swear bc baby is still small the arms and hands feel like tickling on my right lower side!! I love every strange, wiggly moment!!
  • My little boy likes the left side for sure, because that's where most of the movement comes from.  When I am sitting down though with my legs crossed, I feel the movement down low and to the left. Not sure exactly how he's laying in there, but I'm not feeling the movement up towards the rib cage or higher up yet.
