Movement in the lower belly???

Hi there,
I have a question. I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant, and this is my second pregnancy. I wanted to ask about the movements I feel during my first pregnancy—I used to feel the baby in my belly, but now I feel it more in my lower abdomen. Is this normal, and will it change later on? I asked my gynecologist about it, and she said it's probably my intestines, but it's clear that it's the baby! I hope you can give me more explanation.

    Every pregnancy is different when it comes to your placenta. It could be that you're feeling your baby lower now because the placenta is positioned differently. Also, the wall of your placenta is thinner now, so you can feel the baby better too.
    At 20 weeks, it really feels like you're sensing your little one and not just your intestines.
