Hard Bump

[Cat]

What does this mean? today my bump has been feeling rock hard all day and I dont know why, also last night when Iwent to bed the bub was moving LOADS! I dont mean just limbs poking out and kicking I mean the whole thing was jigling round for ages and all these weird little pressures on my pelvic bones, like he was playing the piano poking all his little fingers on it.

And another thing, once the head is engaging can the body continue to swivel round. I noticed on my notes from yesterdays consultation that the bubs head is starting to engage at 4/5s dont know what way round they are at the mo still or if they can continue to rotate easily.

My bump has been doing the same thing lately! It stays hard for hours and then softens when my boy is beating the crap outta me.
