Baby no4 movements

17 weeks pregnant with baby no4 and haven't felt any movements.
I know it's not unusual and I'm still fairly early, but after having felt ds2 and 3 move well before this I'm a little worried.
I do have terrible diatasis recti (separated muscles) so this is most likely adding to it! And unsure of where the placenta is so could well be cushioning any small movements.

When did any of you feel baby no4 (or more!) move?

I can't comment on baby no 4 but I'm 18 weeks with baby no 2 and yet to feel anything definite. I was getting definite nudges from my son by this stage but I've only ever felt the occasional bubble pop this time round so far. Heard the heartbeat last week so I know things are likely to be just fine but it doesn't stop you stressing!

I've just had baby number four. I felt my first around 18 weeks, second 14 weeks, 3rd 16 weeks and fourth I felt at 15 weeks once then nothing for another 2 weeks or so.

I assumed each subsequent baby I would feel sooner than the last. Not the case!

Thanks both Smile that's put my mind at rest!
I have used my Doppler just for reassurance that there is a baby in there somewhere, even my 12 week scan didn't make it seem real Grin

@mortificado I'm 16 weeks with baby no 4 and was wondering the same!!!

I've had four and they were all felt at different weeks, 19 weeks, 14 weeks, 15 weeks and 17 weeks!
