Question
Posted: 07-16-04 22:09pm

K im 35 weeks on monday and for like the past week I barely feel him move. And I know they say toward the end the baby doesnt have much room but I get nervous. I know hes ok n all but how can I count kicks and squirms when he barely moves? It's like everywhere I touch on my stomach I can feel him. Its hard as a rock. My doc said hes head down but they havent done an u/s since 22 weeks and I dont think their gonna do another one and starting on tuesday the 20th is when I go every week and shes gonna be checking my cervix. Is it too soon for the baby to have dropped? Ive noticed as well as people in the family that my stomach looks different. It used to be wide and up high now it looks like it sticks outward more , lower and not as wide. What does everyone think? I also have alot of pressure down there. Sometimes it feels like something is gonna come out lol. ~ erica.

I think it's the baby getting into position. I am sure things are ok. Try and make sure you feel the baby at least once a day moving. If you get too worried, i'd call the doc and demand an u/s. But honestly, I think it all just sounds like the baby is getting in position!
