I'm 31+2 and I can feel the bottom of my bump pulsing. Not baby movement(which I've still got) but a definate regular pulse.
Anyone else had this?

Yup I had this in the last trimester with dd. it was apparently my placenta!

I've had this for several weeks and only 18 gone now! If I put my hands on my belly, I can feel my pulse. Sometimes if I'm sitting with my knees up I can feel it on my legs.

The midwife told me it was my bloodflow feeding the placenta...
