weird pressure & movement

I am 31 weeks and 4 days and for the past few weeks Ive been feeling her move quite frequently but one movement that I've been wondering about is her sudden jerky movements that are right above my pubic bone(which I didn't think she'd be this low) and this pulsing/ heartbeat sensation that feels like my own but its slow yet rhythmic.  And when I sit down anywhere it only happens when I'm sitting never laying down but I've been getting pressure on my right hip like she's sitting on it.  What am I feeling?  Is anyone else going through this?

I'm 27 weeks and I asked my doc about when the baby should be moving into the correct position and I get some hip pain in the back of my right hip as well. The doc said that around 30 weeks is when baby should be moving and getting ready to be born so yes u should be feeling babys head by ur pubic bone and the jerking movements could be hiccups(they dont require air, it comes from the diaphragm, and right now its developing still and getting ready to help the lungs breath) the pain in the hip is from baby moving and pushing also the hips trying to get to thier final place for birth. The 3rd trimester is when the most movement in ur hips happen cus its when baby gains most of its weight fast.

I'm feeling the same way! I'm 30 weeks 3 days with my second little boy! Earlier I felt him by my hip too. It hurts so bad. I've felt the heartbeat thing too. Maybe it's the hiccups or something? I'm not exactly sure, but I'm sure all of this is normal. I wouldn't worry about it! The baby is probably just running out of room!
