I'm Currently Feeling:  | Organs being squished?
Hi Ladies-
Lately I have felt this odd sensation right near the top of my bump. It feels as if all my organs are being pushed to the top and I can barely get my breath at times. It also, sometimes feels as if everything is being twisted in knots at times. Is this normal? Anyone else experiencing this? The baby is fine, she is kicking and I'm always able to find the heartbeat (which has been much higher and stronger lately). Just wondering about this weird sensation... |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I've been getting this for a while now too. Especially if I don't sit up strait.
The breathless thing is especially annoying and also the feeling of your stomach being squashed after you've eaten! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I get this squished feeling as well. I find that if I sit in the floor, raise one arm above my head and lean over to the opposite side, stretching say the right arm to the left, take a deep breath and then the left to the right, it helps lengthen the area and helps me breath. Also when you are doing this, be sure to keep your shoulder down, don't let it come up towards your ear |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I think it's pretty common as the bump gets bigger. Not looking forward to this part of pregnancy |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | It's because they are being squished up, lol... wait untill after you deliver it is the weirdest feeling ever... you feel empty, until everything settles again... it doesnt hurt, just very weird. |
