Almost 15 weeks pregnant - can't feel baby anymore

Hi, I am pregnant with my third. Currently 14 weeks and 5 days along.

For a couple of days I felt baby, almost like muscle twitches.

Now next to nothing for the last 2 days.

I feel quite anxious that it's bad news.

My placenta is posterior, so shouldn't muffle anything.

I know it's too early to call the midwife and I can't afford another private scan.

Does anyone have any advice? xx

I was exactly the same. I only started to feel movements at your stage, and even then would go days without feeling anything but it’s because there still so so small they still have lots of space to hide and a lot of their movements are going to be cushioned. I had a gender scan at 16 weeks and I could see him doing flips somersaults the lot but couldn’t feel him. It was all okay for me, I’m due in 2 weeks. It’s all normal I wouldn’t panic ☺️x

You normally wouldn't feel baby consistently until around 24 wks when they develop into sleep and wake patterns.

It's still very early, with my recent pregnancy (second baby) I felt first movements from 11 wks but then nothing for a few days and that last probably until wk 17/18. I was only feeling the very big movements.

This was me a few weeks ago!

I had period of lots of movement a day days of no real movement between 14 and 17 weeks.

Now I'm 18 weeks, I'll feel movement every day.

Baby is so small, if they change position, you might not feel them for a while.
