Normal for kicks to be so low?

My little boys kicks are feeling super low down like he is trying to kick his way out lol! Everyone said he should be kicking above my belly button but I'm beginning to think he is the wrong way round 😂 also how is everyone coping with the tiredness? I was feeling pretty good energy wise the last few weeks but I've hit 22 weeks and I feel exhausted!?

My little girl kicks me at the very bottom of my stomach where my underwear sits it makes me feel sick sometimes😂😂

Having a boy here too and same here! I haven’t felt any kicks above my belly button. Sonographer told me It’s normal, they are usually lay across our bellies rather than upright

@Natalya it turns my stomach sometimes too lol! Atleast he isn't kicking my stomach I suppose.. God help me the day he starts that as the sickness has only just stopped 😂

@Shannen ahh ok, strange isn't it! I think he is definitely feet down, hopefully he doesn't stay that way lol! X

Yeah it feels like he kicks on my cervix! Also experiencing a lot of sleep deprivation... Im so so tired. No idea why that always happens to pregnant women, im not even uncomfy yet in bed.

They are doing flips on there🤣 my daughter kicks are a different place each day🤣

@Marte oh I'm so uncomfortable 😂 I'm a front sleeper normally so I'm not having the best time 😂

@Olivia it's bonkers isn't it! How they're still the size they are yet have so much room lol! Certainly doesn't feel like it 🤣

My boy always kicks low down, never felt any kicks above belly button level. Don't think I ever felt kicks very high up with my first boy either. 🤷🏼 Xx

@Isobel/Izzy did he stay feet down? Or you just didn't feel them up higher? X

I’m 21 weeks and found out my baby is breach at the moment at my 20 week scan. She is kicking me low down! I don’t feel it too much as my placenta is at the front, so blocks some of the feeling. Definitely round my knicker line though, just below my bump

@Natalya omg same!! I am slowly getting used to the kicks but it is such strange feeling!

@Amy he wasn't feet down he was always lying longways, just never felt any kicks up high! I did have an anterior placenta with my first so not sure if that's why, but I have a posterior placenta this time and it's been the same so far! Xx

I’m also 22 weeks with a boy and it depends on their position I think! My boy loves to do headstands so I know those low kicks are him doing a headstand lol. He also kicks near my belly button and I know he’s laying on his back normally then. Totally normal x

@Anna this is my second pregnancy and I still think it’s so weird😂😂😂

I had the same then the midwife at my 20 week scan said baby is head down, so I was wondering if they were punching more than kicking 😂
