Yeah and I do also...it's called the Abdominal Aortic Artery Pulse...the deeper your push into it the stronger the pulse. No need to worry.

Yeah, it's normal.

Yes, that is normal. Your abdominal aorta is located there.

it's your heart beating.

and im pretty sure that is normal!

It's a slug doing a little dance in your tummy.

Its normal. Or it could be the pulse in your fingers, just that your pushing so hard you think it's coming from your stomach.
