Is it normal to feel kicks really low down?

I've got an anterior placenta and sometimes feel kicks, like just now. But it was really low down, like where my pubic hair is. It felt like a quick kick or pop.... is that normal?

Yes, I remember that in my last pregnancy - it felt like she was kicking to get out 😂

Yes very normal in my experience. Sometimes it almost felt like kicks were in my hip. And kicks to the cervix were pretty ouch at times!

Yes, normal in my experience. Kicks aren’t always feet, it can be punches, and both times I was pregnant right at the end when there wasn’t much room the baby would stretch out and I’d feel the pressure of feet at one side and bum at the other.

God yes! 34 weeks here and feel them so low I feel like baby is on its way out.

yes very normal! 27 weeks and my kicks are either really low down or sometimes on my right hand side. all depends on baby's position and I was told at my 25 week appointment baby was feet down and head up, so makes sense!

It's where I felt all mine to begin with.

Yes I did at 22 weeks, they felt so low 🤍I’m 34 weeks now with baby’s head down so the kicks are in my ribs

I'm 25 weeks and mine are all really low down, sometimes I feel them in my cervix!
I also have an anterior placenta.

Remember it might not be kicks, could be a should, arm or even head movement. I just had a scan at 32 weeks and baby was still lying across me. Midwife said not to worry, still plenty
of time to turn around.

I kept feeling weird swishy movements down low right at the end of pregnancy. Couldn’t figure out what was going on as they said at every appointment she was head down. She was born with her hand by her face - so I guess it was that!

Yep defo normal... has the exact same!

Why do we feel movement? I thinkHe had hiccups as it felt like a jitter movement

Yes same here! Most movements are really low for me, just above pubic hair.
