baby kicking very low? Normal?

Question

21 weeks I feel like my baby is kicking my bladder/pelvic area sometimes or something. Sometimes it feels like gas but i know it's not. I know what her little kicks/punches feel like. But my feelings of her are also a little muffled because I have an anterior placenta. So I don't know exactly where she is :/ but is it normal for her to kick so low? And can anyone with an anterior placenta tell me when they begin to feel more?

Answer

I'm 19+4 and I only ever feel my baby way down low. I feel baby ball up on/near my bladder all the time at work- feels like a big rock lol I had an ultrasound today and my uterus is a good three inches above my belly button....I wish baby would use some of that space up there!

Answer

I'm 22 weeks and have an anterior placenta. I mostly feel my baby really low or way off to the side, although daddy and I were both able to feel a kick last night more toward the center of my belly. If I've read right, as baby grows and gets stronger, and as our bellies stretch out and the placenta thins, we'll feel baby better.

Answer

It all depends on where your placenta is, and how your carrying baby. My last daughter I carried very low and I swear I hardly ever felt her kick but I could feel her move her head in my pelvis. Doc says this one is really low too even this early on :( I hope I feel him/her move a lot.

Answer

I have only felt her kick low, way down by my pelvis.

Answer

I feel kicks down there all the time and I'm perfectly text book lol. If you're really concerned bring it up with your ob.

Answer

I am 34 weeks and I feel like I have a huge rock in my bladder sometimes lol

Answer

Your uterus only really goes up to your belly button at this point so it is normal to feel them lower right now as baby is still pretty low. You still have about halfway to go -- enjoy the fact they can't reach your ribs just yet!

Answer

What I thought were kicks so low were punches lol. If your baby is head down you can feel all those movements near the pelvic bone.
