I'm really hoping that it is movement is this what it feels like?

It might be it, I think I describe the movements at 24 weeks like muscle spasms / gas. I started feeling them at 19/20 weeks and now they are very frequent and noticeable (especially at night when I get into bed).

Yeah that's what I feel like, feels like it's moving and just like you I get them more when I am in bed or led on my side. It's not
Much but the last two nights I've felt them a few times and I've never felt it before x

@Chelseaaaaa is this the first time you’ve felt baby? I’m 19+1 and felt nothing yet. What you describe is what I’ve read online about movements and the feeling

This is my first pregnancy is it yours?
Please don't panic that you've not felt movement yet it will happen I was feeling like you probably are at 19 weeks too and literally the only past few days I've been feeling like wiggly muscle spasms. Midwifes won't get Concerned until 24 weeks! You've got your 20 week scan soon so that will reassure you everything is okay, also try not to compare yourself to other peoples pregnancies!

Your bump? The symptoms I found stopped after a bit when I was over 16 weeks pregnant and I actually felt fine and forgot I was pregnant haha but the sickness comes and goes now! You can't help but panicking xx

@Chelseaaaaa Yeah I don’t really have a bump as such, more so above belly button. Suppose I shouldn’t complain about lack of symptoms compared to what I’ve read some poor women going through

My mine just seems to not have grown for weeks!!! I feel like that anyways but everyone seems to think I've got bigger I think we constantly look in the mirror at it so to us it might not have grown much! Xxx

It probably is, at first mine felt like small muscle spasms in my uterus :-)
Baby movements are the best feeling in the world!!

That's really reassuring that it could be that it's definitely something it's more at night and I've never felt that feeling before x
