is baby most likely to be pressing on my bladder?

Today I was awoken by the feeling of baby pressing or bracing with his foot against my ribs [on the right side] and pushing himself against my bladder. All day whenever I get up to walk, it just feels like he's got his head wedged against my bladder. The rib presses have stopped, but all day he's been digging his feet [I think] into my right side. I want to say he's got his back on the left facing my right, but at the same time, he just feels different than he has before when he's been in that position. He's also pushing or something against my hips; sometimes it feels like he's got a hand on either hip bone!
Not sure if I'm having BH in a weird/stronger way today which is making him feel more bony or "there", or what. And the bladder thing isn't COMPLETELY new, it just feels different than it has before, and I'm just not sure what to think.

BTW, I'm 35wks 4ds with my second.

Thoughts?
Thanks.

It's probably the head pushing down. He in the position he should be at this point and probably won't be switching. Head will be more constant pressure on your bladder, but feet kicking it aren't necessarily fun either. He's running out of room, and he sounds like one who likes to stretch. Hang on - you'll have him in your arms soon!

Yep, what she said.

That's my kid, too, getting cramped, and a big time stretcher!
