Second pregnancy and I don’t have a bump yet and haven’t felt movement yet.

When did everyone start showing and felt movement in second pregnancy?

I didn't know I was pregnant until 16 weeks second time around. I deffo got bigger more quickly than first time around.

I've had a bump from fairly early this pregnancy but no movements at all until last week when i was just over 20 weeks!

I seemed to see a lot of people saying they'd felt movements around 18/19 weeks with their second and my placenta is at the back so I really thought it would be sooner. I was starting to have a small internalised panic but all good - they're getting stronger by the day

I started to show at about 18/19 weeks. I was very small with my first, but assumed I would be bigger this time and show earlier, as that’s what everyone says. Movements started at about 18-19 weeks too. I have a friend who is 4 weeks ahead of me and she’s been showing for ages. I just look like I’ve eaten a few too many pies at 20 weeks 🤦🏼‍♀️😂.

My sister was 22 weeks with no bump, no movements and regular periods. She didnt even know she was pregnant.

I’m 21 weeks with number three, and you’d only be able to say there might be a bump for the last couple of weeks. I feel massive though - I’m very tall and normally quite thin and I definitely feel more pregnant with each successive pregnancy even though I don’t particularly look it.

I’ve also never reliably felt movements before about 22 weeks. Have felt the odd flutter this time since week 18 but it’s very, very occasional and only at night when I’m in bed. Placenta is posterior and was last time too.

Everyone is different! Definitely speak to your midwife if you’re concerned though.

Had movement around the 18/19 weeks, but no bump until I was around 24/25 weeks!
