I think I might be crazy!

I'm 31 weeks tomorrow and when I lean down and put pressure on my stomach I SWEAR it feels like her foot is on the outside of my rib cage, is that even possible?! Like I can see a bulge on the outside of my rib cage where her foot is and see her move it, has anyone else had this?!

My son's movements were never painful, and he was a bigger baby, hers once in a while are painful, not too bad though, I still have 8 weeks to go, so I'm sure it'll get worse!

Im 29 weeks with my first could that have anything to do with why I haven't felt him that high? The highest i usually feel him is like 2 inches above my belly button

She's moved it now, but when I was in the bath tonight I leaned down and my arm was resting on my rib cage and I swear her foot was on the outside of my ribs,..it had to of been, there's no way I was feeling/seeing a bulge on the inside of my rib cage like that, haha. I'll be getting a c-section anyway, but hopefully she doesn't get stuck anywhere!!
