Bottom heavy?

I’m heading into 17 weeks now and have been feeling bottom heavy! What I mean by this is it feels like a balloon with water right above my bladder. I’m guessing this is normal for pregnancy - sorry it’s my first!

Any one else confirm this is ‘normal’?

There’s no pain just that weird bloated full feeling lower abdomen

I feel like that at 7 weeks, I described it as front heavy as just feels like I've got something just there. I know I have but with it being small feels like a lot of weight for what it is at the moment.

@snoopy18. I'm 22 weeks and hace this exact same thing! No pain exactly but a tightly uncomfortable and heavy feeling. It's not even there all of the time and it's definitely worse when I need a pee!

@LookingAtTheStars89 glad I’m not the only one. It feels odd doesn’t it? Is it your first also? I mentioned it to midwife she didn’t say anything about it so guess it’s normal

@snoopy18
It is very weird especially so early.
I've never had symptoms like this so early. It's absolutely wiping the floor with me. I've got my first midwife appointment today, I'm interested to see what they say about it all. My last two pregnancies were a dream compared to this hahaha
