27 weeks, baby moving but low

Amanda C

So I am 27 weeks and this week baby has moved down into my lower abdomen. As I have an anterior placenta, this madness it more difficult to feel him move. He is moving, and when I do kick counts I will get 10 movements in less than 20 minutes, so I know he's okay. However, it's nerve wracking! When only last week he was moving strong and kicking me up high all the time. The midwife says it's fine, but I went in to hear his heart anyway. I hope he turns around again soon.

Anyone else starting to get nervous about movement? It was so reassuring when I was first able to feel him at 24 weeks, and now (I will be 28 weeks Sunday) I obsess over it.... 12 more weeks to go, wonder what I will freak out about next!?!
