Is it just baby's position?

GuernseyGirl · May 22nd, 2008, 06:57 AM

I'm 22 weeks today! Baby seems to be quite low down and all the movements I feel seem to be low down too.

Today, I keep feeling like I'm going to wet myself! I've only just been to the loo (sorry if TMI) so I'm sure I don't need to go but I get this feeling that I'm going to pee. Is it just the baby kicking my bladder or laying on it?

Only once have I felt baby's movements up by my waist level - maybe it will move as it gets bigger? Sometimes I feel like this is my first pregnancy - I can't remember very much from the last one at all!!!

Might just be the fact the baby is lying on it and not giving it much space to expand. I was peeing every 20mins the other day. In the end I stopped drinking!

I feel exactly the same as you - baby only occasionally kicks above my belly button and spends a lot of time sitting on my bladder.

Bless him!

hi

I had this alot at 22 weeks as well. I was weeing nearly every 10 minutes. My husband found it hilarious but I didnt lol. You might find it eases off after a few days once baby moves.

ya its probably pressing something on your bladder, its quite a weird feeling as tho u need the toilet but if you wait a min or so ull see you actually dont

Sounds like it is the baby's position. My LO still prefers to kick and prod me down below my belly button!

Definitely sounds like LO's position! I was having something similar so mentioned it to my midwife, turns out my LO is lying with her head right down and is back to back, so her bum is at the top of my bump and shes kicking me low down! Little bugger!

Sounds like yours may be in a similar position!
