felt the baby?

Last night after I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and I came back to bed, I was laying on my back and I put my hand on tummy. Down low, right above my pelvic bone and I felt something kinda hard, I pushed on the other side and everything else was soft, then I went back to that spot it was still hard, DH felt it too, then a few minutes later it was gone. Do you think that was the baby? Keep in mind, when I lay on my back my hip bones and my pubic bone all protrude past my stomach, so there isn't a whole lot between me and the baby.

not quite sure, but it might have been!

how exciting!

It could have been, I get moments like that where a certain part is rock hard, almost like the baby is pushing out or stretching. It usually lasts a few minutes and then it goes away. So you might have felt the baby!

I really think it was my email message today said the baby is the size of the plum and if he was pushed up against the top of me, I probably could have felt it. How exciting!

My midwife asked me today if I even noticed a hard bit, and if so it was my uterus contracting. Which it will do through out the pregnancy to build the muscle up. It is not something you can feel internally like a cramp, but would notice it externally. I had the same thing you had, but just assumed it was my uterus.

Sounds like you may have felt your uterus as oppose to the baby itself, but lil baby is tucked away in there!
