I'm 25 weeks. can pushing on your stomach to feel baby position or just for fun to feel the baby move cause placenta abrubtion?

Dr. John Berryman answered

Placental abruption : Placental abruption is usually associated with hypertension, abdominal trauma or poor initial location of the placenta which completely or partially covers the cervical canal. Your OB physician may order pelvic ultrasound if bleeding occurs, but activities as described will generally not result in abruption.
