Looking at my tummy, I am wondering how my baby positions herself inside.
Sometimes I felt her little head moving in the lower part of my tummy. Especially when I sat, I felt her little head or fist turning aournd anxiously there, urging me to stand up. Sometimes I felt a little bump near my belly button. When I touched it and rubbed it, the little bump quickly subsided.
The landscape of my tummy also changed its shape frequently. Sometimes there were two slopes residing side by side on each side of my belly button, forming a curved shape of M; sometimes one slope shifted towards the belly button, making the other one higher and harder; sometimes two slope both disappeared and my tummy became flat.
One day, I found the two slopes coming back and formed a perfect M, with the belly button as the middle point. “Is baby lying sideways in my tummy?” I am wondering.
So I talked to her: “Hi, baby, are you lying horizontally in mommy’s tummy? If so, please move head down, otherwise mommy will have difficult to deliver you.”
Half a minute later, I witnessed a huge landscape change on my tummy. One slope suddently rose dramatically. As a consequence, the other one quickly dropped flat. Then the newly emerged mountain shifted to the lower part of my abdomen and disappeared.
The whole process lasted only few seconds. If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I couldn’t believe my tummy have such a flexibility.
Did it mean she was heading down? I was not quite sure, because few days later I saw the two slopes coming back and formed a perfect M, with the belly button as the middle point, again!
Until now, I am still trying to figure out how she positions herself inside. How can I outsmart her?
