I am 20+6 and really scared that I am not feeling movement. I am tall and thin but I do have an anterior placenta. I might be feeling movement but I'm not sure. It doesn't feel like what people describe.
People often describe a flutter or it feels like your eye twitching. In my view, these are very fast twitches and it would happen multiple times in a row.
What I feel is different. I feel 2 sensations occasionally (a few times a day). One sensation feels like a single pulsation or muscle twitch but not the eyelid one (more like one you would feel in a bigger muscle like your leg). This sensation is more localized. The other sensation that happens occurs over a larger part and feels more like a wave or rolling. It's very gentle and mild though. I usually only notice them when I am sitting not doing much or lying down. The sensations are very brief and only occur once then stop. So I can't really describe it as a fish flipping around because that would be several sensations in a row. The sensations that I feel only happen once and then stop. But a few times a day.
This has been happening for about a week but I don't think they've been increasing in frequency. Some days are more frequent then others. But overall, it's not increasing in frequency or strength. If I was not pregnant, I wouldn't really think much of these feelings as they are subtle.
I had a good anatomy scan at 19+3, but I am still really scared.
Do these feel like baby movements? Or just body things? I am really scared. And even if they are baby movements, shouldn't I be feeling them more intensely? I just have a really bad feeling about this (I do have anxiety so always have bad feelings lol). I am away on vacation right now and I want to enjoy the rest of it. We are visiting our friends' new baby and it's hard because I just have a bad feeling about my own.
