baby low?

Im 16w 5days, had a doc use the hopper Friday to find the heart beat and it was above my pelvic. she was searching by my belly button. then when she found it she was like "whoa it must like it down there." anyone else have a baby sitting down low?

My bub was low and head down at 16 weeks, then at 29 weeks he was head up and high. The 31 week scan showed head down and high, he is starting to drop low now though!!
At 16 weeks bub has a lot of room to move as they please, often times they find a spot they like and frequent it...

Baby is alway found below my belly button but my baby is transverse.  But at 16 weeks the the uterus is still below the belly button because not until 20 weeks does the uterus come up to belly button. Also I have read that they can tell how baby is laying from where they hear the heartbeat.
