Stomach feels bruised

Hi, I am 30 weeks and when the baby kicks a certain part of my stomach it feels like something is pressing against a bruise which is uncomfortable. Is it normal for certain position/movements to be discomforting? Thank you in advance for any advice!

I get this from time to time. I just rub my belly for a while and baby moves then finds a new area to kick / nudge / lean on Grin

Alternatively it could be your body stretching in that particular area.

I have the same and I'm also 30 weeks. Really makes me wince when he presses up against that bit. Midwife said it's nothing to worry about.
