Does your baby sit really low?

I'm 24 weeks and sometimes she feels like she is sitting right in my vagina. My doctor told me it can be normal as long as there is no bleeding or cramp like pains but I won't hate to wait until that happens to go to emergency. Does anyone else's baby sit really low?

You should be fine. My doctors could tell she was low from the abdominal ultra sound and her exact location was confirmed with the vaginal ultra sound

Ask your doctor about progesterone pills they are supposed to help with the cervix that's what my doctor gave me

I'm pregnant with my first, also a boy, and he's felt low almost the whole time I've been pregnant. Very uncomfortable. I'm high risk as well so I had ultrasounds done and finally had that feeling of him being too low while having an ultrasound and they said my cervix is short, 1.5 instead of 4 which it's supposed to be, and they gave me ibuprofen bc I can't take Tylenol bc I have liver problem. I've felt sick since they gave me the ibuprofen and it feels like its eating my stomach lining even when taken with food, and it's a class c drug so I think I would rather them just give me the steroids for his lungs since I don't feel right taking the ibuprofen anyway. I feel so stupid now knowing I was having contractions, real ones and Braxton hicks and I thought I was being a crybaby and turns out I should have said something or when I did mention it I should have acted like it was w big deal. I don't know what I would have done if I could have even into labor too early, my brother has cerebral palsy from being premature so I'm extremely nervous . I just want to make it until October, I'm due the 22 but if I can just make it past 37 weeks I'll feel better.

Being pregnant is all new to me. I am with myou first (son) I am 27 weeks it feels like he's low especially when he kicks it feels like he's kicking me in my pelvic area. I haven't had to have a vaginal ultrasound since I was about 10 weeks. All the ultrasounds I've had were on my tummy. I could be wrong maybe he's not that low but sure does feel like it sometimes
