With my other two pregnancies I never had this but this pregnancy i seem to only feel kicks and movement below my belly button and I'm 27 weeks. It's been like this since i could feel movement. Sometimes it's so low i feel it around my underwear line. My other kids I felt them higher above my belly button by now. Could this mean my baby is possibly transverse?
I know you ladies can't just look in and see but I was just curious if other ladies have had this kind of movement and how their baby was positioned. If baby is transverse I'm not worried cause I know I've got plenty of time to move. I'm just curious.

I'd say breech is more likely if you're feeling baby all super low. Transverse you generally feel more movement on the sides

My son was transverse up until 37-38 weeks pregnant and I usually felt kicks on the sides and pushes (arms I'm guessing) on the front and towards my back. He was breech at 38 weeks and I felt a lot at the front and down low. Then he went head down at 39 ish.
I only know position because of weekly ultrasounds for my last trimester.

Can you feel a tennis ball above your belly button? That’s how I knew LO was breech. Otherwise I always seemed to feel movement down low. Even after she went head down, between her hands and long legs that came all the way down towards my hips all the movements were below my belly button.

This is exactly how I felt until around 32 weeks. Now it's suddenly *very* strong kicks way at the top of my uterus and and ribs. All that to say, it may change positions!

@cyoung: I feel kicks really low and also to the side. LO moves all the time. My appointment is this Friday and I am going to ask if my Ob can tell me what position she is in. I do know it’s so early that it will change so aim not too worried. I plan to bounce on my yoga ball daily in a couple of weeks. This will get her in position etc. I get the okay from my OB and it feels good on my back!

@MamaBear87: that makes a lot of sense! @BadgerMom: unfortunately I cant tell apples from oranges when I touch my belly. I cant really feel baby. I do have a doppler and her heartbeat is below my belly button to the left but I also get kicks to mostly to the right. She probably is breech lol.
@cake2017: I'm gonna ask my doctor as well. I plan on doing a 4d in the next few weeks as well so my doctor will know for sure then.In the end if she is and stays that way it's fine but honestly I'm not worried cause she can totally move still. She still has room and time.
