..I'm now 27 weeks and since yesterday my bump has been suddenly getting very soft and squishy (usually very hard).
Is this normal??? Totally worrying here Sad

Your baby may have moved into a back-to-back (posterior) position. I've read that that can make your bump feel squishier. Have you been feeling more movement/kicks towards the front?

He's just started to really move, which is reassuring to know that there's nothing wrong. Thanks for replying :)

Gawd yes. Depending how I'm sitting vs standing and how baby is lying.

Sometimes I'm like "where's baby gone" then they move again and I most definitely know where they are!!!!

Thanks ladies!
I'm such a worrier Sad - think he knows and calms my nerves with a few hard jabs in the ribs haha.
It keeps hardening up and then going really squishy again but I feel like my bump hasn't gotten any bigger in the last week or two, even though you could see the difference each week from 22!
