Gap in bump

i have a pretty hard round bump but under my belly button I can poke in like there’s a gap? I can feel the outline of baby through that gap is this normal! If I walk too much that’s also where I get pain. Please tell me this is normal and I’m not crazy aha (baby is still moving)

Is it where the stomach muscles separate slightly? If so, I don't think it's unusual.

@PlanningQuestions i have no idea it’s right under my belly button probably 3/4cm in diameter

All normal! It's the lie of the baby I imagine

With my 3rd I used to have a hollow right in the middle. He seemed to spread eagle himself across me, limbs out, instead of neatly tucked up! I could feel his arms / legs.

It was reads odd, both in shape & sensation but he was active & healthy throughout!
