When did you feel movement with third baby?

Hi,

I'm 17 weeks pregnant on Monday and becoming increasingly worried that I've not felt any movement yet. I'm pretty sure especially with my second I was feeling movement by now and expected with it being my third baby that I would have felt something by now?

I felt movement around 17 weeks with my second. But everyone is different, my sister didn’t feel movements until around 21 weeks with her second as she had an anterior placenta xx

Only 2 pregnancies here but first was 22/23 weeks with an anterior placenta, second was 20 weeks with a posterior placenta.

Anything between 16 and 24 weeks is considered normal

Where is your placenta? That will make a huge difference to when you will be feeling first movements.

Around 20/22 weeks?

It's so hard waiting
But once you feel it, it gets stronger every day

I felt movement so early with my 2nd (15 weeks) and assumed it would be similar with my 3rd…didn’t actually feel anything until 20 weeks. Posterior placenta with both 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi @blessedmammy I'm 16+3 today and also pregnant with my 3rd baby. I've started feeling little flutters for the past few days but only if I'm sitting or lying still and even then I'm still not 100% sure if it's baby or just my digestive system! X
