Baby quite low still at nearly 14 weeks?

[pollydolly]

Hello!
My first post officially in second tri, eeeee!
Anyway - I have been able to find baby's heartbeat since about 11 weeks, however he/she is still quite low down, around my hip area on the right, where my underwear line is.
Is this right for how far along I am?
We measured a few days behind so I'm 13+3 but should be 14+1, they said I'm probably more like 14 weeks but because baby was curled up he/she was measuring 5 days behind.

Sorry for the long post xx

They are still quite tucked away but also depends on where baby is my baby has been head down in my 3month scan and 5 month so Heart beat is always low down

Baby's heartbeat will be well below your belly button until at least 20 weeks x

My baby is still laying down above my pubic bone area. Doctor was not concerened he's just comfy there. He can't stretch out though lol he's in a ball and feet over his head

im 22 + 3 days and my baby's heartbeat can sometimes be found in my pubic area! just depends where they are laying

Perfectly normal the top of your uterus only starts to appear above your pubic bone at 12 weeks, so baby can be really low for quite a while yet. It's fine, and congrats!! xxxxxxxx

Oh phew! I've been worrying quietly to myself but glad I said something now I can just be pleased haha.
Thanks ladies! & thanks for the congrats moom7900!
I was starting to think my 'bump' was me just getting fat too, but I can't breathe my little bump in at the bottom and it's really hard so I think it's a proper little bambino bump/bulge haha! Xx

I'm almost 25 weeks and she's still super low. Must be cozy down there!

Hehe my babies still sat in my pelvis at 20 weeks! Can tell its running out of room length ways so don't think it'll have a choice to move up soon lol

Thanks for posting! I was wondering the same thing. I'm 13 weeks today and at my appointment yesterday they found the HB just above my pubic bone and I thought that seemed really low. The nurse actually couldn't find the HB (yeah, panic in the park) but she didn't look low enough, the doc found it right away.

 

[pollydolly]

Ah it's so nice to see so many people posting thanks for the help girls!

Maybe she/he is just low & going to stay that way! Looks like ill be waddling early!
The HB is so reassuring to hear! It's like bambino is talking to me haha (I'm not weird i swear ) xx

My baby is still pretty low too. Although I think over the past week it's been slowly creeping upwards. I can feel that my fundus is about an inch bellow my belly button. I'm also showing quite a bit now. I think it depends on the pregnancy I have seen a chart somewhere that shows about how high the baby is at each week.

Hey Polly!
I'm 14 weeks tomorrow and can feel baby on my left side a few inches low and to the side of my belly button. Think its normal for our stage

If you always find HB on same place it's probably umbilical cord attached to placenta.

 

[hopestruck]

I definitely think that's normal! I'm almost 17 weeks and feeling movement now, and it doesn't get much higher than about an inch above my public line. So yeah, baby stays low for quite a while!

It's not always in same place
