My baby's head is in my ribs?

I am 26 weeks pregnant today and my baby is constantly moving and kicking and it looks like my belly is doing the worm and such :P. For the past like 2 hours straight it feels like something is lodged up in my ribs on my right side. I dont know if he is big enough for it to be he his foot to feel that big, I think it may be his head. Just thought I would share that and make a conversation of it :]

  • Your baby isn't that big. You may feel huge, but your baby is really tiny, like a squirrel.

  • How big do you think he is? Like inches wise or feet?

  • Hes probably kicking your stomach and putting pressure where youre not used to it. Its a good sign that hes active, even if it can be a uncomfortable. :)
