Right above the pubic bone is the first hill which is the bladder, the valley after the first hill is where you will find the uterus. Some say the uterus is near the next hill which is the small intestines but I find it in the valley too. I talked about this in the postpartum course when addressing the bladder mobility assessment.
Would you do this on a pregnant belly when there is a placenta previa?
No. we want to leave the uterus alone when the placenta is in that position.
Did you describe hills and valleys anywhere? I must have missed that somewhere?

Did you show compression decompression in the first video, non pregnant body?
I rarely do compression decompression on the uterus but yes you can. I find it more helpful on the bladder.
