Feeling baby move very low?

Question

I'm a FTM and am 27 weeks along. For the past couple of days I haven't felt too much movement (I've found the heartbeat on a Doppler though). I do feel slight movement very low in my pelvic area. Is this normal? Before this I've felt/seen baby move higher up by my belly button. Do babies have days in a row where they are less active than others?

Answer

Hi! I'm 27 weeks too and baby is head down so I feel lots of movement mostly below my belly button like when she punches or moves her head around. She's been low my entire pregnancy. And she does have lazy days, I don't think you really need to keep track until the 28 week mark. My baby will have a day or 2 that she just doesn't do much and it worries me sick, then she will start up again. X

Answer

Hi Hun

I've had low movements & high pressure down below for weeks think my baby girl has always liked laying low. 
I told my midwife she said some babies like to change position a lot at this stage including bottom where the head should be. If it's not your first pregnancy then babies can engage and move constantly
So almost like practicing getting into position.

I was scared as I didn't have any of this pressure with my first but this bubba just likes to sit really low hope that helps x
