It could be your aorta (the main vessel carrying blood down to the legs from the heart). It is a common thing. I can actaully see my fluttering visually when I am lying down.

ya i get this too! i can feel my heart beat in my tummy n i also get a weird moving sensation in my tummy too.

yes I get this too - is it normal?

From looking through the forums I've seen this mentioned quite a few times so I would say it is fairly normal. It is also one of those things people may not notice or may only notice after a time. I only noticed it in myself recently and can't say for sure how long it has been going on.

All the best
