Hi CDx, yes ditto although more subtle movements higher than belly button, not quite at ribs yet lol but according to midwife uterus is 2" above belly button now (hence why innie turning outie lol) only had a few kicks above belly button but her kicks bellow have got stronger and agree the placenta isnt shielding anything now lol...Im not getting any tight feelings above belly button but can tell my stomach is adjusting as sometimes after eating when deep breath in and out hear wierd sounds just in that area as if stomach is trying to do its work but unable to lol....one thing im pleased about is my weight gain. At week 18-22 I was gaining too much (according to Im pregnant app where you can enter bmi pre pregnancy and every 2weeks weight) but these past four weeks have levelled out, only gained 1lb in two weeks and thats over xmas! I cant believe it when midwife said uterus would grow an inch upwards per week so my cute sized belly will soon be heading outwards a lot more lol....oh and this may sound crazy (first time Mum craziness maybe?) but ages ago we bought one of those kids dolls that cries from supermarket and have it ready for practise (nappy changing, clothing changing, carrying etc). It measures 18" (not quite life sized!) and our baby girl is currently 14" in length - makes it more real when you compare to a baby doll - how on earth does she squeeze in there?...
