I'm currently 16w on my third pregnancy, I had two miscarriages before this and I have two toddlers.
My anxiety has been so so high this pregnancy with the prior losses. I find myself having panic attacks that's something's wrong. I just feel like something isn't right.
In my second pregnancy I was showing by now, my stomach was hard & I was feeling baby. I don't have any of that this time. Obviously I know every pregnancy is different.
I keep having dreams that's something is wrong Too.

I'm having such a hard time not panicking! Can any relate & share their experiences please

Have you spoken to your midwife about this?
16 weeks is early to feel the baby. Could.you arrange a private scan?

Give your midwife a ring and she’ll be able to advise you or pop down to your early assessment unit

Have you had your 16W midwife app? Maybe you could ask them to listen to the heart beat or express your concerns at that appointment x

I had my 16w appointment yesterday she wasn't really much help x

Oh that's annoying :(
I have my 16 week app on Tuesday and I was hoping that she will listen to the heartbeat and be a little reassuring as im worrying just like you.
This is my first baby. I havnt felt any movement yet ( I know that's normal) but I just feel too "normal" if you get what I mean? It doesn't feel like there's a human growing inside of me lol. All symptoms have gone and some days my belly feels hard like a bump and some days it feel soft.
So it's not only you who's feeling like this. X

Maybe a private scan would help you? It might put your mind at rest x

I can relate with the anxiety. Pregnant after 2 mc and found the 16 mark hard. No more sickness and no bump or movement so to speak and next to no care (16 week app over the phone).

I think at this stage I was counting the sleeps till my 20 week scan and trying to stay busy. I also tried to be logical - ie no bleeding and statistically after 12 weeks the mc risk is low.

I think you have two options - private scan or approach your midwife again. My midwife did say that she runs weekly clinics and you can book for more appointments if you feel that you need to see her.

It's so tough as it probably is anxiety from the previous losses.
