Baby movements are "different"

Ma

Hey ladies, today my little girl seems "stuck" in my vagina area. She seems to be in one position the whole day, when normally she is moving around and I feel here on the left, the right, down and up.. But today, she is only in the middle right down in the center very low. I'm 26w1d.

I think she is still moving from time to time. But It doesn't feel like kicks, I can't even explain, it just feels weird.

I don't know, maybe this is a very silly question, but can this be normal?

I did some workout, cleaned the kitchen, moved around, hoping it will change her position. But nothing helps..

Hopefully tomorrow will be better?

What do you think? Any recommendations?

I've noticed on days when I'm more active, baby doesn't move as much until I sit down and am still for a little while. If you wanna get baby moving just drink a little orange juice or cold water.

I’m also 26+1 and baby movements have been different recently. From what I’ve read, it’s very normal at this point to have days with different types/amounts of movement.

You can try laying on your left side for 15 minutes and then switching to your right side and seeing if that helps. Put a couple pillows between your knees and really stretch out the pelvis.

Yessss my baby has been literally shoving her foot in my vagina ! I googled it , they said it’s the cervix the baby is kicking and it’s normal . Also the only thing that seems to work is when I rock my stomach like a baby lol spoiled already 🤦🏽‍♀️

That's normal mama. I'll be 28 weeks Sunday and I have an anterior placenta and I've learned there can definitely be different ranges of movement and positions for them. I'd say my girl likes my right side more but if they're just somewhere they're comfortable then they'll just stay there no matter what lol. Sometimes my girl is so calm and sometimes she's so all over the place. Like the past two days I haven't felt her during the day but since about 9 something almost 10pm cause I'm laying down she's been moving non stop lol. Every baby is so different tho. ❤

I felt like that for a few days. I felt like any movement I felt was her punching/kicking the heck out of my cervix! Now she’s back to rolling around everywhere 🤷‍♀️ I don’t know lol there’s still a lot of room in there maybe baby just found a spot they like lol

It's totally normal. You don't have to worry about movement and counting kicks until 28 weeks. At my last ultrasound, my little girl had her head stuck in my pelvis and nothing worked to move her. I laid on my side, drank cold water, and the US tech poked and pushed so hard that it bruised my tummy! And after all that, she still had her head down in my pelvis and we could t get any cute pictures of her head and face 🤷‍♀️ it happens!
