Hi,
This is the stage in pregnancy when the amniotic fluid is ample and the baby moves freely. It is perhaps these movements that you are feeling. Pain can be felt in the rib cage if the baby's head pushes against it. If you feel that the baby is descending down, which should not happen at this stage, please contact your consultant immediately for further help. Take rest in the left lateral position and with foot end elevation. Braxton-Hicks' contractions are a normal phenomenon at this stage. Hope you find this information useful. Wish you safe motherhood.
