when to worry if you not feeling movements?

[HotI]

I know there is lots of variation in when women start to feel baby move, but when do you start to get concerned about not feeling bub?

if it's a 3rd pregnancy, when do you start to worry?

[Peekaboo]

My last pregnancy was my 3rd and I felt movements much later than with my first two. Position of the baby & placenta can make a big difference. I was a bit more padded this time around too. I requested an early ultrasound (at around 18 weeks) as I was so worried, but I'd had bleeding/spotting on and off since 12 weeks, so GP was happy to refer me.

How far are you HotI? I didn't really feel this one until 20weeks. The other two I felt heaps earlier. Maybe you have an anterior placenta? Have you had any ultrasounds yet?

Everyone kept telling me I would feel this one earlier, and I didn't feel anything until about 22 weeks.

The more I have the harder it has been to feel them. Apparently because they have more room inside, so their movements are less constricted and therefore less forceful.

plenty of room in my tummy, and an anterior placenta, so iy sounds like it's not too out of the norm to not be feeling it yet.

I had just heard that you feel it earlier each time, and it wasn't happening for me.

thank you for reassurance

This is my 3rd pregnancy, and at 18 weeks (with my first anterior placenta mind you) I lost movement. A quick trip to ED and I was put straight into birthsuite to check for a heart rate. All was well, and I was reassured that babe was ok. Like the other two, this one has awake and sleeping times.
Because you're still relatively early, try giving baby a good poke, otherwise, nothing beats peace of mind, its truly priceless xx

1st pregnancy - 17 weeks.
2nd pregnancy - 24 weeks
3rd pregnancy - 22 weeks
4th pregnancy - 22 weeks
5th pregnancy - 18 weeks

Does that help?

I'm currently 19 weeks in my first pregnancy, the baby started moving about a week ago and i would feel it move everyday but now i barely feel the baby move, sometimes a day or two goes by and i dont feel anything. Is this normal?

[Lady-bug]

I think I would start to worry when I reached the same weeks I'd previously felt bubs move. I think I was feeling consistent movements around 18/19 weeks with the last two so I would use that as a gauge. Are you having ultrasounds?

Hahahahaha I often wonder and imagine that I go to an ultrasound and the nurse sees no baby, my tummy was just bloated
