Oops...post too soon.
Mean to said no room for the baby to hide anymore. I have to beg the baby to calm down and and go to sleep. I really need my rest, I'm just so tired. Oh the joy of motherhood :)

At ur stage sometimes id wake up in the morning and my baby bump would be gone. I think it has a lot to do with being bloated and also the way baby is positioned. As for the movement,  pretty soon you'll be feeling the baby allllll day everyday!  Right now it has a lot more room to move but in a few more weeks it will change. Just keep an eye out on days u do feel baby and that baby is nice and active.

Ya it's normal. Baby is very good at finding hiding spot and at your stage, there still plenty of room for baby to roll around. So someday you will feel more kicks and belly seem bigger because baby is up front and center. Other day he/she will nest toward the back and you won't see or feel as much. I'm at 36 weeks and I can feel every movements, no room to hide anym

I'm 25 weeks and I'm experiencing the same thing :) Even my hubby notices it so it has to be a big difference :) But like it was said they flip and turn at this stage so I wouldn't worry :)
