Baby movements

[Fawn68]

Hi I am almost 18 weeks with my 2nd child. And so far I haven't felt much movement at all. Only the very very rare flutter maybe in the evening time but only 1 or 2 and not every day. Midwife listened in the other day and the heartbeat is really good thankfully!

I'm just worried as I've had 2 recent miscarriages and also everyone and everywhere I seem to read, have already had plenty of movement by now with their second baby. Anyone else in the same situation? I'm feeling quite anxious.

Withmy 4th I didn't feel much movement til 18 weeks, and even then it was just little taps and bops. She had a lot of room!

Pregnancy after loss is so worrying isn't it!

Your lil passenger will be very obvious before long, by 23 weeks some of my daughter's kicks were borderline painful.

Try not to worry! (Easier said than done I know)

I felt my baby less on my 2nd child and had a couple of private scans as I was constantly worried as I had a miscarriage before. She's now 16 months old tearing apart my house 😂

I’m 19+ weeks with baby number 5 and not really feeling much at all. Rationally I know this is perfectly normal. Doesn’t stop me stressing though!

Thank you all! It really is a constant worry, And hopefully over the next couple of weeks I will start to feel something more.

I was the same with my 3rd didn't feel her much at all till about 22-23 weeks. I was also really worried after having 2 miscarriages before. It turned out my placenta was at the front so blocking a lot of the movements

I was never sure at 18 weeks whether it was him or not. I think it was week 19 when he did one massive kick, that my partner could feel on the outside and for the first time I was sure it was him!
