What Causes Unusual Movement In Stomach?
I was lay in the bath and could see my stomach moving just above my belly button. Like a rolling you get when you are pregnant it felt the same too. Called my partner in and he could see it too. In our panic we did a test and I was negative. I have had 5 children my youngest being 1. My husband has also have a vasectomy 18 month ago. Although he didn t go back for the sperm count check. Any answers would be much appreciated.

Hello and welcome.
The movement of the abdomen could just be pulsatile due to your abdominal aorta. The movement can also be simply due to peristalsis which is a wave like movement of your intestines to help transport fecal matter through the intestines to help reach the anus to be expelled.
Best wishes.
