I just wanted to see if anyone has experience this before and is it alright for the baby to sit so low

check your anatomy books. the bladder sits in front of the uterus. when the uterus expands, it grows upward out of the pelvis. so now it is behind and above the bladder, and the bladder has nowhere to go! it gets a little pee in it (or none at all), and the pressure on the bladder outlet makes you have to pee.
baby is not sitting low on your bladder, he's actually sitting above it and on top of it.

Oh yes! I have been carrying low my WHOLE pregnancy... and should have bought stock in Charmin!!! It is perfectly fine - so don't worry. It just means a lot of trips to the bathroom - and i mean A LOT. The only thing you should be careful about is your fluid intake. KEEP ON DRINKING THAT WATER!!! I know subconcsiously you may not want to cuz it fills your bladder - but you really need to. And don't hold it in - empty your bladder whenever you need to. Good luck & happy peeing!

I'm 8 months and my son is always on the right side on top of my bladder or kicking my bladder......He just loves my right side..at my last ultrasound he was sitting indian style on top of my bladder.
It can be uncomfortable but is normal, sorry.....Once you have your baby you won't remember all the crappy parts of being pregnant....This is my 3rd baby, And each time I've told myself It wasn't like this with my other two, but it really is just the same.
Congrats on baby.

I am 6 1/2 months pregnant with my second baby. This baby sits on my bladder as well. I dont know if you know the sex of the baby but they say that you will carry a baby boy low and a girl high. I have a 4yr old boy who I swear thought my bladder was his water bed, always on it. Now this child another boy Loves it. I believe it is normal for boys. Maybe you are having a boy!!! Congrads and happy pregnancy!

I am 6 months pregant with my 3rd child. Where else is your baby to sit? There is not much room in your belly. Just wait as the baby gets bigger. You have to pee when you are standing then don't have to go when you sit. Even better when you have to get up 3 times a night just to pee. But don't worry- soon enough you'll have the baby and this will all be forgotten (maybe because you have so many other things on your mind and number one is sleep) Everything is worth it though- I love being a mommy.

My TWIN sister I had very different labors. She had her baby a week early, had a 38 hour labor, 4 degree tear and passed out because she lost a lot of blood. 4 years later during my labor, I had to be induced because I was a week late, my cervix got stuck at 6 cm after about 18 hours of labor so I had to go with a c-section. Very different huh?

Yes, and it is perfectly normal. The last four months of my pregnancy I was in the bathroom every hour - the last month every twenty minutes.

Yep, perfectly normal. I find that my second one is sitting lower than my first one.
