Something just moved in my stomach..

[Ohshitx]

I’ve name changed for this.

Something literally just rolled in my stomach, there was a popping sensation and now I swear I have a bump where I didn’t before. Nothing that strange until I mention that I’ve not had sex since November and I’ve had periods since then. But something is moving in my stomach, and not like trapped wind. I’ll get out for a test first thing, but I surely can’t be that many weeks pregnant and not have had a single symptom till now, surely? Please someone tell me I can’t.

I have had that feeling and i have had a hysterectomy. Just the body doing what it does

It’s probably wind... however I know a woman who gave birth a few months ago and had no idea she was pregnant... so it’s not unheard of!

Could be wind, hernia or pregnancy. I wouldn't bother with a pregnancy test (it tests for the hormone HCG, which declines in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters) as it will likely be an unreliable result. You need either a blood test and/or physical examination (abdomen, cervix) and/or scan.

Let us know when you've had a pregnancy test.

Unlikely..but not impossible

I know one lady who gave birth not knowing she was pregnant and another who found out at 7 month, its not unheard of.

the first time I ever felt a baby move in my stomach, it basically felt like gas. I'd heard all sorts of poetic descriptions of it - ooh it's like a fish swimming in your belly! / feels like bubbles / just like butterflies in your tummy etc etc but it didn't feel like that for me. It felt just like a bit of good old digestive peristalsis and gas.
If you haven't had sex since November and you've also had periods, it's highly unlikely to be a baby. You would have felt it already at 16 weeks or so.

i have this eve4yr now and again feels like fluttering even took a test just in case dont know what being pregnant feels like

I had this once, it was so convincing I was panicking. Then I did the biggest fart I think I have ever done.

Can you feel anything if you press down ?

Ive had trapped wind that felt like fluttering.

Would it be a good result if you are ?

Making for the baby pic. :)

Possibly a hernia? But no point guessing. Please contact your GP in the morning and get checked up. Good luck.

Have you had a baby before op?

So you'd be 6-7 months pregnant if you were? Have you been pregnant before? Can you post a pic of your abdomen?!

Sorry I didn’t mean to disappear!

Yes I’ve got a DS who’s 7.
I can’t get out for a test till tomorrow as I have him at home with me.
I’ve felt it move again since but it wasn’t as strong.
Will try a glass of juice and see if it’s a kick or a fart 😫😂

If I am.. well I don’t know. I’m just not going to think that one through till I know.

I'm another one who didn't know until 26 weeks. No symptoms and no weight gain

I have that now and then. It definitely feels like baby flutters. Only has happened since having the DCs

I get this and it's defo wind or the longest pregnancy in history, interrupted by an actual one!

But when I get wind there isn't an elbow poking out. Sometimes I feel like there's a bump or something after the fluttery movement but if I poke it, it's soft and defo not a limb.

If you could feel movement you'd be at least twelve weeks so the uterus would have moved up past the pelvic bone. Lie in your back and have a feel around. A pregnant uterus is pretty firm and obvious if you're feeling around there.

It's a food baby....

Ibs sufferer here. It's the colon / wind. It happens to me often. Sometimes I lay in the bath and watch my food baby move around.

My youngest DC is 6 and I still could occasionally swear that I can feel a baby moving around - my post menopausal Mum says the same. No new babies. Hope you get the outcome that'd be best for you OP

Its been 12 yrs since I had DD but I still get wind like that

I felt like this a couple of weeks back, I did 10 pregnancy tests and they were all negative. I can only conclude it was trapped wind or something hopefully not a tapeworm

I get this often, sometimes flutters and sometimes big "kicks". Definitely not pregnant and didn't have them before DC, or maybe didn't notice it? Look up phantom kicks, it's really common.

Wind?

I get it quite a lot. I’ve no idea if I always got these twinges and ignored them pre kids. Or if they came about because I had children or as a result of having had pregnancies I now associate them with a baby kicking.

All I do know is I’m not pregnant 🤭
