Advice wanted!

Hi! I'm 25weeks! I just need some advice if possible, So I was out walking yesterday, I won't lie I felt like I was sitting more then I was actually walking, I kept feeling like the baby was sitting very low on my stomach and it was discomforting, is this even normal? Or does anyone know how to release the tension?

Ive had it quite a lot but it doesn’t normally last long before it feels like they move. If it takes a while ive just moved around myself a bit or had a little walk and it seems to fix it.
I spoke to my midwife at my 24 week check in about them feeling quite low and she said its still normal as they are still smaller.

If your worried do call your midwives though, always worth a check if your instincts are kicking in.

I’ve had it quite a bit this pregnancy, it can feel very uncomfortable! They have quite a bit of space to move around at this point so common for them to go down low. I often get kicks that feel like they’re in my vagina or bum 😂 so weird!
If you are worried though, like Zoe said, ask a midwife!

I’ve had it a lot this pregnancy, baby is super low in my pelvis and it’s not comfortable at all. Saw my midwife this morning and baby was laying low but she wasn’t at all concerned just said that it can be normal.
Please do get checked if you’re worried!

Baby Iris (due 13th July)

My 2nd baby. Found out late that i had gestational diabetes. Had it in first pregnancy but passed twice this time. At 36 weeks they said I was measuring big and needed a growth scan. Then baby was estimated to be 97th percentile. Had another test and found the gestational diabetes was back! You can imagine my relief when I went into spontaneous labour at 37+2. Woke up to my waters breaking at 12:50am. Contractions started about 1 hour later. Then Iris was born at 3:20am weighing 8lb 7oz. Just 2.5 hours from waters breaking! I have quick labours as my son's was 4 hours.
She's a very good, chill newborn! After having a velcro newborn first time, I'm enjoying this time round more!
Good luck to everyone yet to give birth. You've got this💪

July baby turned June! 💕

Had my second beautiful boy on wed at 37w! He’s such a tiny baby doll 5lb 12oz. Labor was crazy and so intense. From the time my water broke to birth was only 2hr!! Feeling so very blessed and tired lol.
