Can anyone who's had 4 or more term pregnancies come and advise me?

9 weeks with DC4. Am really noticing what initally felt like BH cx, and think I am prob just feeling uterus stretching. Also felt last nigth as if I felt fetal movement; only for a moment, and not since. Question is, do you get more sensitive to bodily changes as you get more experienced, so as to speak in pregnancy?

.

yes definately felt it much much earlier with each subsequent pregnancy, only got BH type things with my 4th pregnancy.

I've been pg 5 times.

I think yes, you do get more sensitive to movements with each pg, but 9 weeks is too early to feel actual movement I think.

I was deffo feeling movement at 13 weeks with ds who was my 4th pg.

As to Bh type cx I couldn't say - never had any "false" cx, only real, actual ones in any pg!

Deffo think you become more sensitive to bodily changes as you go on.
I've been pg 5 times (only reached full term 3 times, sadly), and the last 2 times I've known I was pg the day after the night we conceived, as there is a certain 'fluttering' feeling on one side or another, which MUST be fertilisation taking place...Call me crazy, but I've only felt this when I have actually ended up pg, not every time I could have been, IYSWIM!
Also, with my 3rd DS (4th pg), I felt his movements very early-prob about 8 wks. Like you, at first I wasn't sure, but as they carried on and became stronger it was obviously baby that I felt.
Just posting this is making me feel broody ;)

it is just wind ladies....

I have been having "foetal movements" even to the extent of feeling a moving lump like a leg or shoulder - but followed shortly afterwards by breaking wind so I know it was just a gas bubble! I am only 11 weeks so I know that my uterus is not even out of my pelvis yet.

I also had "phantom" foetal movements both times after giving birth and there definitely wasnt anyone inside then! you mind can play strange tricks on you.
