Belly tightness / softness

Hi all, hope y’all are good 😊
Question, is it normal to have your belly soft at the bottom ( feels like there is no baby there ) and harder on top ? ( would say middle area )
I’m 24 and 1 day pregnant.. TIA x

Mines doing that too!! And I swear one day it’ll be hard on the bottom soft on top and then back to the other way. I think it’s them moving around. I think lol

I also have this. Sometimes as I am walking around my stomach feels really hard at the top for a while.

Mine too. Harder at the bottom at night sometimes x

I have only noticed it yesterday on my night shift and it’s the same now. Could it be that the baby moved to the top ? So confused. I’m guessing the baby is all good as I can feel small kicks / flutters now and again.

Yep usually means baby has moved up to your ribs or you're just carrying them higher. And if this is your first I imagine your pelvic floor is still strong so nothing has dropped (unlike me on number 2 and I can't even go to the bathroom without feeling like I've just lost my insides).

It's your baby! At night I feel him bundled up on my side (can't tell if it's his head or butt) Then during the day he is at the top chilling, and when he is moving around, I swear he uses his umbilical cord as a rope 😂

Yep its the way baby is lay. Mine is currently feeling firm right at the top and when I press in slightly I can feel his limbs moving 🤣

Anxiety with the bump.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve suddenly developed a massive anxiety around anyone standing behind me. My husband is annoying me so much because even though I’ve told him how it makes me feel, he’s continued doing stuff in our kitchen (that is tiny anyway) and sliding past me to grab things. I know the baby is safe even if I were to bump the bump a little but even the thought of it is still making extremely anxious. How do I cope with this feeling and is anyone else going through the same sort of thing?

Please be nice as I have anxiety…

So I’m 20 weeks pregnant and I went to the hospital for light bleeding when I wipe ( not ever time though).. the doctor told me it was due to sex and that my cervix was irritated has anyone else experienced this? And or know way to just calm my anxiety from it

Breathless and feeling like I need to be sitting constantly!

Has anyone else been feeling this way as they're getting closer to their due date?

I attempted to change our bedding this evening and had to call my husband for back up as I literally felt like my lungs were going to explode just trying to reach over to put the sheet on.

I'm huffing and puffing just getting my toddler into his pjs, and I was sat down! Like what is going on 😮‍💨🥲

Everything has been check ie bloods etc so I think it's just general pregnancy as I'm now 38 weeks. My bump feels like it weighs about 100lbs 😭
