Tingly/numb/pins needles feeling at top of bump at 35 weeks pregnant?

I'm 35 weeks pregnant and all of a sudden I have a tingly/pins and needles feeling at the top of my bump at the moment, it's lasted 2 days but also feels numb at the same time. It's getting really annoying and uncomfortable now and I wondered if anyone else had this? Or knew what it was? Or a way to ease the feeling? Xx

What's the positioning of your baby?
I had this on the right hand side as my sons foot was always right under my ribs on the right side!

@jumperweather mine is exactly the same, it's right where his feet are!

@babydust2412 Yep! Mine only went away once he was out 😂
One time I even put an ice pack on that area, he moved his foot for about 10 mins (of bliss!) and then it was right back!

I did a bit of yoga and sitting on the ball but it didn't really help.

Hopefully someone else may have some ideas for you!

@jumperweather Thankyou, it's nice to know someone else had it too and I'm not just going crazy 😂 it's the strangest sensation ever xx

@babydust2412 I remember how irritating it was! Good luck OP 3:) congratulations x

I had that and it got progressively worse until the baby dropped. Mine improved massively after giving birth.

@jumperweather thankyou!

@BeesAnkles Thankyou! Only have 5 weeks left until I'm due so just have to wait it out I think, it doesn't seem to be getting any better. It feels numb but hurts at the same time it's so odd xx
