normal for baby to always hang out on one side?

[starfish79]

30 wks today.  For last ten weeks, I feel like I'm almost always feeling the baby "ball up" on my right side.  The feeling of a head or a butt or whatever is always on the right in my abdomen.  

Never felt significant activity on my left.

Kicks and such in the center.

Normal?  You too?

Totally normal. I have worse stretch marks on the left from where L used to push.

Oddly this baby seems to be in the same position she was in. Makes me wonder if it's my utes shape.

I was just wondering this! She is all on my right side, too.

Consequently, I am take sore on my right side in my chest and around my ribcage to my back. I'm guessing that is where she is putting pressure in my ribs right now.

Yep. My baby definitely has his preferred spot figured out. His butt is poking out on my right side.

Right side I think is where you want them to be. The head is down, so the back goes along the right, and the legs are hanging out in the middle or left depending how big it is. The butt is what moves a bit as baby gets foot holds and pushes it around .

DS has been this way for forever. DD used to roll for a while before setting in head down but once this kid's torso was big enough to feel he was shoving his butt right up top.

This is my kid, in her favorite position. I was thinking (since mine is breech) she turned sideways and it was her shoulder sticking out. Sometimes it's painful too. Totally normal.

Haha, I was about to come in to say that my stomach is lopsided but I haven't seen it quite like this yet!

I mostly feel movement down low and the upper right corner of my belly - I have an anterior placenta so I think it's probably that I don't feel movement where the placenta is. Just a guess.

Yep mine is always on the right side. He likes to stick his butt out. I can feel where his body is. He is diagnal in me.
I think he has stayed on the right side for the last 10-15 weeks.

interesting! thanks!

Right side hear as well. The placenta is on the left and Is anterior. I mainly feel and see movement near my belly button.

Ladies, does it feel weird something moving inside of you?
Never had a pregnancy progress this far *yet*

Yep! Baby H likes to hang out with her head down and her spine/bottom along my right side and kick along my left side and upper abdomen.

He has been breach the whole time thus far. I don't need to worry about that, right?

Mine was breach for just about every ultrasound I had for a while and I was told not to worry about that and that she'll move eventually.  I haven't had an us lately and the Dr. hasn't said anything to me about her position now, though.

But I try to go with the rule that if the Dr. isn't worried I shouldn't be either.

Your baby still has plenty of room to move at 24 weeks.  At 28 weeks, the first time my dr checked my baby's position, she was head down.  Then, at 32 weeks she was breech and has remained that way ever since.
