I though he was having little baby seizures in there but it was just a neurological reflex. Actually at 3 months old he still has that reflex! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295794 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:39:07 +0000 Running Elley 295794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Interesting! Idk which way Harper is then! Let me know after you have the U/S! (I know you'll end up doing it :)) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295792 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:37:44 +0000 PrincessBaby 295792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Running Elley: Haha! I think it was right at my belly button actually. I was laying down and staring at it and trying to figure out what the hell was going on, so I don't remember 100% but it seems like it was right in the middle? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295772 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:26:42 +0000 chopsuey 295772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine's been poking at my bladder non stop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295771 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:26:10 +0000 Running Elley 295771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: LOL!!! Yes that sounds like hiccups!! Omg you crack me up. I had Josh feel hiccups and he was like “How do you know that’s hiccups??” He totally doubted me and was just picturing BB banging his head against me just like you were picturing haha. Definitely hiccups. BB gets them at least once a day! Where were you feeling the bangs? High or low? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295770 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:25:20 +0000 PrincessBaby 295770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelingbrit: Ooooohhhh!!!!! Good to know!!!!! Hmmm, I may call them here in a minute....Thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295766 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:23:51 +0000 PrincessBaby 295766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Running Elley: OMG! Hiccups must have been what I felt the other day! It was this steady jab-like stuff that made my belly move! It NEVER occurred to me that it was hiccups! I thought it was so weird and actually imagined her banging something around in there - but it was so rhythmic that I was freaked out! I imagined her having like, a twitch problem or something!!! Or like in the movie "The Change-Up" where that baby bangs his head on the crib. I imagined something like that. Duh!!!!</p> <p>But it was pretty much right at my belly button I think... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295762 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:22:47 +0000 wheres_c 295762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get the hard to breathe feeling when Im reading my ipad on my back. I have to prop myself up now. I bought the boppy pregnancy pillow Wed, and that has helped with the sleeping.</p> <p>@jholler25 We havent seen baby in 7 weeks, so have booked a return visit to the elective place for Tuesday. It's only $39 if you are a returning customer during the week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295741 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:10:41 +0000 Running Elley 295741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: That's a really good point! I always know BB is head down by that too. If hiccups are below the belly button baby is head down @jholler25! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295734 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:04:59 +0000 pastemoo 295734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had such severe abdominal pain (right by my gall bladder) that I went to the ER. It lasted from 22 weeks to delivery. It was suffocating when I was lying down. I hated being pregnant for exactly that reason. My LO was not breach then or when he was born. (He was breach only for a week after a car accident at 27 weeks.)<br /> I know it was his feet because I measured the stretch from "feet to butt" (what I guessed was feet to butt) and correctly estimated his birth length. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295724 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:00:33 +0000 Running Elley 295724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Ha! Our guys’ hands are down there too. I’ll get little punches RIGHT next to my hip bone. I seriously don’t understand how he could “drop” any longer without dropping right out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295720 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 15:00:00 +0000 mrskc 295720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never felt the suffocating feeling before. Just my ribs. I do feel strange gurgling from all kinds of places that don't seem normal. </p> <p>I can tell my guy is head down b/c I feel the hiccups low in my pelvis area. Doc confirmed this at my last appointment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295717 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:58:56 +0000 MamaMoose 295717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: @Running Elley: My lovely little bugger has his/her hands up by the face so I have constant pressure on the bladder and then every now and then I get a nice punch down there just for good measure. My husband and I were target one time and I got punched and had to stop and bend over to keep from peeing my pants. God, pregnancy is so sexy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295708 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:55:46 +0000 Running Elley 295708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: My bladder squashed-ness is constant like a head too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295701 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:53:18 +0000 Tidybee 295701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like Elley said, I think it's more the butt and the general size of the uterus that is causing the cramped space in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295697 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:51:53 +0000 Tidybee 295697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: I don't know for sure...I'm hoping the doc can tell me at my next appt next week (almost 35 weeks). But based on movement and limbs poking out, I'm pretty sure little Baguette is head down. I'm also not getting suddent kicks to the bladder, but more like general pressure (like from a head or larger mass). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295696 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:51:24 +0000 PrincessBaby 295696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Bahaha! But I saw on 'Pregnant in Heels' where one of the moms had chronic Vagina Bone pain and she even went to a chiropractor for it! She said he took a hammer/tool and banged on her Vagina Bone! I think Vagina Bones are real:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295694 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:50:29 +0000 Running Elley 295694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: BB is head down and I still get the suffocating feeling! For him it's his butt squashing my lungs/ribs. Lovely :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295692 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:49:34 +0000 MamaMoose 295692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My little one has been head down since 16 weeks and is pretty low. Some days I swear my vagina bone (which I know is not a real thing... I guess it's the front of my pelvic bone?) feels like it's splitting in two. At my last ultra sound the tech said to me "Wow, your baby's head is really low, that must be really uncomfortable for you." Why yes, yes it is, thanks for pointing it out!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295687 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:47:45 +0000 PrincessBaby 295687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Oh good to know he's head down!!! I guess feet can do this kind of damage-lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295684 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:46:48 +0000 Running Elley 295684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My right ribs are also feeling pretty bruised from him putting his whole weight on them. I also think that he's completely squishing my bladder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295683 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:46:34 +0000 PrincessBaby 295683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tidybee: Hey! Have you had your final u/s to know if you're LO is head-down or not? I guess it's hard for me to imagine two little feet causing this much havoc! I saw all these people post that their breech babies did this...Although I really hope neither of our babies are breech!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295680 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:44:44 +0000 hilsy85 295680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Ha yeah, just wait another few weeks! It gets worse :)<br /> ETA that baby boy is head down and has been since at least 30 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295676 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:44:06 +0000 ladyfingers 295676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>omgosh I have so much to look forward to :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295675 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:43:07 +0000 Tidybee 295675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Definitely. I remember it setting in aroudn where you are. It's pretty scary at first...but you get used to it. I didn't have to add any extra pillows at night though. Mine was worse when I was sitting than lying for some reason. Side note - It makes sex all kinds of awesome too (sarcasm). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295672 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:42:10 +0000 PrincessBaby 295672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Scary because these little stinkers still have to get bigger. Harper is only 2.5 lbs right now and she's totally opening up this can of whoop-ass on my lungs:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295667 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:40:53 +0000 PrincessBaby 295667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Maybe that has something to do with it, on top of a 2.5lb baby in a basketball sized uterus laying on our diaphragms! I still get it laying on my sides too, which sucks. I basically have to sleep sitting up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295661 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:37:27 +0000 Mrsbells 295661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had extreme pain in my left rib.. but as soon as the baby came out, it was fine </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295659 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:36:19 +0000 DillonLion 295659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get that suffocating feeling too, but I thought it was because of this whole thing: <a href="http://www.babycenter.com/406_is-it-safe-to-sleep-on-my-back-during-pregnancy_1245287.bc" rel="nofollow">http://www.babycenter.com/406_is-it-safe-to-sleep-on-my-back-during-pregnancy_1245287.bc</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-baby-squashing-any-of-your-body-parts#post-295658 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 14:36:02 +0000 mrskc 295658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My right ribs hurt so bad everyday from him pushing against them. </p>
