Is it normal to feel movements really low down 18 weeks?

[Beau2020]

Hi, I'm 18 weeks pregnant - FTM. I was just wondering, is it normal to feel movements low down and lots of pressure? I'm constantly needing to go for a wee, literally every 10 minutes it seems! I can feel so much pressure, it's not painful but more just uncomfortable. The very bottom of my stomach feels a lot more hard compared to the rest of my stomach and I've put on a stone in weight since the last time I weighed myself a few weeks ago - I was very shocked!

Yes sounds normal. Your uterus is still only about level with belly button at 20 weeks. Welcome to the peetwentymilliontimesaday club

Yes completely normal, my little guy is still chilling in my pelvis at 27 weeks, he just doesnt want to venture out into the open 🤣 I get kicks so low down and he presses on my bladder constantly!

Haha! Aww ok that's made me feel better. I was worried because I've been bathing every night that I've been encouraging early labour or something but I'm glad to hear that's normal! Thank you xx
