A member asked:
I'm -19 weeks pregnant and i noticed that lately i have a strong pulse by my uterus, lower stomach. is that the baby breathing or anything to do with?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pulse in the uterus: This is not a common description of complaints in pregnancy. Baby breaths are not picked up by his mother. Even his heart beats are not sensible other than by listening to those with special equipment. Pulsating in the lower abdomen may be the awareness of the aortic pulse or some other feeling. I would refer you to your obgyn to discuss that and do further exam.
