Feeling first movements really low down in cervix?

hey guys, I’m currently 19+2 weeks pregnant and just last week I started feeling early movements. They happen a few times a day only and especially when I’m resting in bed. Today, the movements are slightly stronger and they’re SO low down! Feels like baby is kicking my cervix trying to escape!! Is it normal to feel movements soooo low down? I have an anterior placenta btw.

Yes totally normal. Baby will still be quite low and small. I'm 33 weeks now and baby is confirmed to be head down so my kicks are now higher up but earlier on they were much lower and more like flutters. I have an anterior placenta too

Yep normally and especially for an anterior placenta. Mine is anterior this time and the movements feel so different to when I had a posterior placenta. Much lower and softer. With my first the first movement was a great big kick that made my belly move, it was so strong I thought it couldn't possibly be the baby but it was.

Yes my movements feel just like this at the moment. I’m only 15 weeks but have a posterior placenta. Feels like kicking into my cervix

Yes my movements are still low down and I'm 22 weeks. They started as very low down flutters less than two weeks ago and this morning my husband felt his first kick from the outside, still quite low so they developed from flutters to kicks pretty quickly!

Yep! Normal. I'm 24 weeks and recently my kicks have been really really low, like where my knicker line sits. Usually my kicks are at the side of belly a bit higher up.
I went into triage last night with worried over reduced kicking\movement. Anyway they said lower kicks are normal, might even be a bit more subtle and less noticeable. Don't worrySmile

Baby is low down at 19 weeks. So yes
