Can see and feel stomach moving * not pregnant *

Has any one had this? . Over the past 4-5 days I've been feeling and seeing what feels like a baby kicking/turning in my stomach. I've been on the depo injection for about 5 years with only a short break during covid where I went on to the pill.

I've done two tests just to put my mind at rest both negative. No other symptoms and I haven't had a period in way over a year.

I've googled and googled and found similar threads but just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

I think you need to see a GP. I am no expert, but I think the test analyses early pregnancy hormones. Later pregnancy may not be picked up.

It’s possible it’s wind, but it’s also possible it’s pregnancy. 💐

Have you travelled inter-planetarily recently, OP?

I didn’t want to mention that@Gatorpickle

Yes, wind can do that, particularly if you are slim so your intestines are close to the surface.

@Gatorpickle unfortunately not 😮‍💨

Wind can absolutely do that but please see a GP too. I've had similar when I'm not pregnant and mine was wind but just in case!

frenchiemummy92 · 28/02/2024 13:25

@SlowlyLurking how long did it last? Just feels odd to be going on so many days. I don't think it's wind 💨

Have you ever been pregnant, Frenchie?

Have you had any other unusual feelings? Been stressed, sore, upset…?

frenchiemummy92 · 28/02/2024 13:33

@pickledandpuzzled yes I've been pregnant before. I've got two children.

Stressed yes but that's all

Stress can cause bloating and massive wind. But I’d get it along with loud stomach gurgling and alternating constipation and loose stool.

I really would get checked out though. Ring your surgery.

frenchiemummy92 · 28/02/2024 15:58

I'm not windy or constipated. Will certainly ring doctors if it continues

Are you slim? I have this especially when I lie down in the bath

I have a hernia and reflux and I have these symptoms when those are acting up.
