Is it normal for a bump to disappear?

I’m 37 +3 days and today I’ve noticed my bump has just gone!

I’m curvier anyway so there is a belly but not my normal pregnant belly! Even my partner just said to me where’s your bump gone 🤷🏼‍♀️ The bottom feels basically deflated and wobbly and the top is hard.

She’s been moving all day so I know she’s ok!

Is this normal to happen?

She could’ve moved down into the birth canal or into your back, if you’re worried call the midwife and they’ll check her position xx

Honestly they wouldn’t care, they’d rather they know you’re reassured and not stewing yourself into a ball of worry, trust me they won’t judge you!....but I’d say baby’s dropped into the birth canal if you’ve lost your plug, good luck and keep us updated!! 🥰

Hey, I’m am 37+5 and the same has happened. The bottom is soft and top harder, but still lots of movement! Hopefully it is them getting ready. X
