Sounds silly but I keep wondering exactly where it sits as the baby grows, like does it move up higher? Im 5 months and feeling pressure in different places now. Just trying to understand whats happening inside.
In early pregnancy, it's deep inside your pelvis, but it gradually rises up to your belly button by the second trimester. Don't worry about paying for extra early scans just to check its position unless your doctor mandates it. Keep your hospital fund ready for the main 20-week scan instead.
Early on it is low down in the pelvis, then slowly comes up, haan na. By the fifth month, it reaches near your navel. Our bodies change so much during this time, it is really wonderful.
I am in my second trimester now and can feel it expanding right around my belly button area. Honestly, it feels so heavy and hard sometimes, which makes me a bit anxious. Did any of you also feel this hardness in your tummy?
Actually, it's hidden inside the pelvis in the first few weeks, and then it expands upwards, yaar. By 20 weeks it's near your belly button. It's wild how it stretches so much to fit the baby!
It starts low in the pelvic area and slowly moves up towards your stomach as baby grows. Doing light, gentle stretches can help with the expanding pressure. But please, if you feel any severe pulling pain, check with your doctor immediately.
