I am 25 weeks and i only feel my baby kick really low, below my c-section scar, my midwife cant work out which way the baby is from feeling, neither can the consultant at the hospital. I am getting a bit concerned now, does anyone else only feel there baby kick really low? In fact its so low it feels like its behind my pubic bone

you have ages before you need worry about which way up they are

Mine was like that up until last week (i'm 21 weeks). I've felt it really low for a long time and only now am I feeling a bit higher.

My theory is that lower down my uterus is closer to the skin, whereas the top part has all the organs in between. I have lots of contractions (Braxton Hicks) so I know exactly where the uterus is and I can tell how close it is to the skin. Also, when I went for my 20w scan, the baby was head down and moving a lot. I could definitely feel his arms, but not his legs.

Anyway, as long as it's moving, there's nothing to worry about at this stage.
