Low kicks

Katlyn • Firefighter wife👨‍🚒 step mother👩‍👧baby girl due 9-4-2018. ❤️

I’m 21 weeks and I still feel little kicks low in the abdomen. Around my underwear line. I thought they would be higher up. Is anyone else having this?

I did. She was kicking right above my pelvic bone for about a week and a half and now she’s back up to her original position. Kicking right under my ribs lol

Yep! My kicks are SUPER low usually! Sometimes lower than I thought my uterus even went!

I’m 29 weeks and I still feel mine there. She’s head down and I have an anterior placenta so I only sometimes feel kicks. She has to be super stretched out for me to feel her above my belly button. Normally it’s headbutts low down.

I feel them sooo low like even at my vagina and pants line and my son is feet down or has been for a little over a month. Hoping he flips! I’m 25 weeks

My little dude loves jabbing me in my pelvis! The last time I had an ultrasound, the tech said he may even be punching me instead of kicking! either way, it's a pretty constant and weird feeling sensation! lol!

I’m 24 weeks today and have been feeling almost all my baby’s movements really low, for several weeks since I started feeling any movement. My doctor thought he was breech but an ultrasound proved her wrong. He’s head down. I have another apt in about 1 1/2 hours and plan to ask again if he’s still head down and if he is, why I’m still feeling him so low. I have a strange paranoia now that since he is (or at least was 3 weeks ago) head down, and I’m feeling him low, that his legs don’t work! Otherwise he’d be kicking me higher, right?

He’s still head down. All my other babies I could feel all over. None of them had a preferred spot they stayed in so early on. Sometimes I can feel him kick higher, around my belly button, but it’s not often at all. I feel him twisting and boxing but he’s always head down and toward the left

I’m not sure if my baby is breech or head down. My last ultrasound was at 19 weeks and she didn’t look to be either. I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing low kicks

Not necessarily! They tend to have their legs curled up in the fetal position, and they’re still so little at 24 weeks that some movements aren’t felt. You’re likely feeling headbutts low if he’s head down! My little one is head down, too, and I feel her head/shoulders down there frequently. At 29 weeks I’m feeling her kick higher now.

Yes. I'm 24 weeks and baby is currently breech which is why he kicks so low still. His head stays about a inch above my belly button.
