as you can tell i am, took DP and i ages to concieve and i just want lo to be ok!

Completely and utterly normal. A lot of people don't feel anything at this stage and it's normal to feel something some days and nothing for a couple of days. In a few weeks time you'll get no rest from it.

Congratulations.

ooh you are lucky....my first baby took until I hit 24 wks to feel movemnet!!

felt DD2 however from 12wks......just more sensitive to the movements then I think.

congratualtion....sounds normal to me

oh, believe me tho, once you get to 30+wks and baby is kicking hell out of you and your ribs, you will wish you were 22wks again

omg thanks all of you, so reassuring, DP has just thrown Doppler in the bin... I knew doppler was a bad idea, i tested it on my heart and could barely feel it!!

Thats the weird thing, i've felt a few flutters but they arent really flutters more like something spinnign around in my belly? i just cant wait to get to the point where i feel it all teh time!!

thanks for you're replies x
