I'm 37 weeks today and noticed a few weeks ago that the lower part of my belly got super soft and above my belly button is hard as a rock. Has anyone else noticed this, and is it normal?

Yep, it just depends on where the baby is sitting

Yep I use to push a bit on the hard spots and baby would push back lol sometimes I could feel if it was a foot or something š¦¶š»

Yep, my son used to stick his ass out right below my rib cage... I'd have to push it back in a little 𤣠it was so hard the Dr was sure it was his head and that baby had decided to turn breach at 37 weeks. I went for an ultrasound to confirm he was just long and cramped š¤£

That was me and he was breech. Ask your ob-gyn to check and confirm with ultrasound

Iām 38 +3 and baby boy shifts so frequently (pivoting on his head according to my midwife) that Iāll have random soft spots and random hard spots. To me, it sounds like your babe has shifted up a little - nothing to be worried about, my boy has spent most of his time in there lodged into my ribcage, heās only recently moved out of there⦠for the most part.
