At 22 weeks I shouldn't be feeling....?

Question

Kicks ABOVE the belly button right? I feel kicks that are about even with the belly button maybe slightly higher...but as I type I can feel a kicking/moving/bubbling sensation under my ribs. Its definitely not gas.lol this is my 2nd pregnancy I can tell lol.

I have been feeling/seeing the baby kick for a few weeks now and it has only been around/under the belly button. I don't see how it would jump that high out of nowhere....unless I was further along? But my doctor has given me a few ultrasounds and he seemed sure that I was on track. Well...once I went for a ultrasound at this sister-hospital because they had a better machine. and the technician thought I was 2 weeks further than my doctor did....but he just kinda ignored that....even THEN..2 weeks would be THAT much more growth of the uterus?

sorry if this Q was confusing lol I tried.

Answer 1

Your baby is moving all over the place so you shouldn't worry too much. You'd be surprised what our little babies can do in utero. If you are concerned, ask your doctor just to put your mind at ease. Best wishes!  

Answer 2

babys legs are not stretched ...they are bent at the knees...so...

Answer 3

I have the same thing going on...the doctor told me that a week to 2 weeks didn't really matter. It is a little more growth of the uterus but not a whole lot. A baby born at 38 weeks is consider full term...even though a pregnancy is suppose to be 40 weeks. I'm 21 also, on my second pregnancy, and I'm almost 22 weeks.

Answer 4

At 22 weeks your fundus is above your belly button, so you would be feeling those kicks.
