Question

I feel like my baby is burping on the left side of my lower abdomen, with my belly moving in quick bursts. Is this my baby burping?? And does this mean the baby is head down, with the correct fetal position???

Answer

Based on your description, the quick movements in your abdomen are likely due to your baby’s activity, not burping. The normal fetal position is head down, but there are different types of fetal positions. It’s recommended that you go to the hospital for a gynecological ultrasound examination to confirm your baby’s condition. If your baby’s movements are different from what is usual, it’s important to check if the baby has choked on amniotic fluid.
