downtown pressure

edited April 2011 in Third Trimester
Ok so last week at my dr appt they said my baby was sideways but the last few days ive be feeling alot of pressure down there... Could this be a good sign she's turned and gotten settled head down or am i just getting my hopes up?

  • Well, I don't wanna get your hopes up but for me, when that pressure kicked in, I found out that she moved head down. I say yes, but again, I would hate to get your hopes up!! How far along are you?
  • It's possible that she's head down but keep in mind she can turn back around all the way up until your due...Ugh yeah that sucks
  • BkE931 I'll be 35wks sunday....i know even if she hasnt she still has some time to turn but im so small framed im scared to death she's not gonna have room to flip if she doesnt soon i've been driving myself crazy.
  • I'm willing to bet money that she's head down. A lot of the times it's hard to tell, but can you feel your belly and tell what parts are where? Or when baby gets hiccups, can you tell if they're above or below your belly button? They say if you feel them below your belly button, then that is a good indication that baby is head down.
  • @BkE931 I cant tell whats her head or her butt. I think shes hiccuping now its below my bellybutton like in my pelvicbone feels like and it use to be up towards my ribs...is that a good sign?
  • Yeah if she's hiccuping down towards your pubic bone then she's head down. Yay! Just remember though, she could turn back up. I don't know how likely it is for her to do so, but I know mine turned at about 33 weeks and never looked back haha.
  • Thank god...thank you for your help i go for an ultrasound tuesday and i was so scared they would say she's sideways still. But
  • Now im hopeful shes turned
  • I'm hopeful as well. You'll have to let me know if she has turned or not! Good luck at your u/s. :)
  • this is a random question... but how do u know ur baby is has hiccuped? does it feel like kicks or something cause i feel those all day everyday lol
  • @Bunny_424 it feels like constant little jabs trust me you know.
  • @angelsmommy... oh- well maybe i have felt my baby hiccup before. I count everything as kicks lol. some are harder than others.
