It hasn't happened except for today. I'm 26 weeks and my baby girl feels so low like when she kicks I swear I feel it in my vagina. I don't have another appointment for 2 weeks. Can anyone help
I told my husband mine was kicking me in the vagina yesterday haha he said he is possibly kicking a nerve that makes it feel like it's super low. I was like I feel like he's right there! Lol
I mostly feel baby pretty far down too but then again I've got the placenta blocking off most of the sensation on the top portion of my tummy. I wouldn't worry unless your feeling cramps or pain.
I've definitely felt a few kicks or punches in what I'm guessing is my cervix...they always feel so weird and make me jump! Lol. But as PPs said, you and baby are fine, she's not trying to escape yet or anything, just feels lower than it is!

Mental image of baby trying to punch it's way out! Ha ha!!
Totally normal. I feel most of my little one's movement down low, and if yours is hitting your cervix, that's why you feel it in your lady bits. I admit that I also get the mental image of mine trying to escape when she's nailing me over and over, but I've never heard of that actually causing a real problem.
Yep, normal. In another month or two the head will be shoved up against your cervix and that will bring a whole new set of sensations and pressure (and lightening crotch lol).
There's really nothing to 'help'. It's very normal. And it's quite possible they are punches rather than kicks if baby is already head down. That's all I feel since my LO is riding low and head down.
I have felt the same thing this pregnancy. My US last week showed LO sitting directly above my cervix. I also have a cerclage in place so any kicks/jabs to my cervix means lightning crotch x 1,000!
Mine kicks/punches low as well. My uterus is just above my belly button now and I have felt a punch or kick once or twice up high but most are below and I've definitely got lightning crotch from time to time, it's awful! I also imagine my baby trying to ninja move his way out and I tell him he needs to just wait until March! Haha!
Im 24+3 and my entire pregnancy sonce ive been able to feel her (around 14wks) she has been right down in my pelvis only once or twice ive felt a small kick just above my belly button other wise i feel like shes right in my pelvis bone im not sure if thats just were her legs are and shes just kicking downward because sometimes it makes it hard to walk she so low ! But your not alone... my doc hasnt said anything so i hope she moves up a bit soon ☺
I feel the thudding against my cervix too, sometimes it feels like the kicking/punching is going backwards into my bottom as well and that's really weird!! Haha!! But I'm seeing a lot more from the outside now, and have watched my tummy bounce well above me belly button and nearer my ribcage too!
My 19wk US showed that baby is breech at the moment, so I think that's why I feel her moving so low. I don't think I've ever once felt her above my belly button!
25 weeks. Lately, all the kicks have been right at the belly button or sometimes a little above.
I too have seen movement crawl across my belly. Looks like there's a big bug crawling under my skin.
A few weeks ago, all the movement was below the belly button. Seems like there's no more room down there so he had to come up a bit. I'll consider myself lucky for now not to know what lightning crotch feels like. LOL. Sounds unpleasant. Thanks for the warning.
Oh! and @charley15!! Thanks for reminding me about hiccups.
Last night, I was experiencing a tiny movement that was so perfectly timed, I thought he might be a dummer or something.
I was having trouble figuring out why it wasn't sharp like a kick and it was a perfect rhythm. It was WAY too slow to be any kind of heartbeat and it lasted off and on for over an hour. I was very confused until I read your post that you feel hiccups!
Now I'm certain that's what it was. Thanks for clearing up that mystery!
My baby is always in a different spot. Sometimes he kicks down, like he's hitting my cervix, and sometimes he's kicking up above my belly button. I think it's pretty normal for them to move all around.
Most of the time my LO moves in my pelvis area and I can definitely feel her laying there with pressure, bladder and cervix jabs. Last U/S she was already head down too, so they're probably punches and the ones I feel above my belly button are her little kicks. It's normal, we all just have low babies!

I'll be 26 weeks in a few days and I already felt a rib shot. Ever since the US to find out he's a boy he's been head down and kicking above my belly button and punching down low!
