I can't remember if this is normal or not? Been feeling movement since 15 weeks once or twice a day always sudden and heavy feeling and for the last 2 weeks nothing. And today my tummy feels tender and painful and when I stand it feels a bit like there's pressure down there Confused. It's Friday and I don't think our EPU is open over the weekend until Monday now.

It’s still early so probably baby has just moved somewhere, but 2 weeks is a long time so I would definitely get checked asap. I had reduced movement on a Sunday and so went to the labour ward in the hospital - give them a ring and see what they say.

I just think I'm too early to go and get checked as they can be quite funny as I'm under 20 weeks I could ring the advice line we've got I guess.

I wouldn’t worry this early on, I’m 18 weeks and 4th baby too and I felt the others at 15/16 weeks and this time not felt anything yet (I don’t think anyway, think it’s just wind). If you haven’t had any bleeding it’s likely everything is perfectly fine. You could ring epu for advice on the pain, see what they suggest/ recommend. Have you had pelvic girdle pain before, I get it really bad and is started already, might be the pain you’re feeling? It’s hard at this stage because there is literally nothing they can do for reduced movement until your baby is viable really, they might scan you though to check all is ok xx

Pregnancy number 3, felt first movements around 16 weeks...then didn't feel anything for a week and freaked out. Felt the odd movement but big gaps in between and now at 20 weeks it's still not regular so try not to worry! Baby is still small and has probably just moved x
