I just hit 16 weeks and all my symptoms have gone I can eat anything again, I have a small belly but really I just feel normal. I am guessing it's just a phase before I start to really feel movement but it's killing me. I just saw her a week ago and she was great strong heartbeat. I don't go till 18 weeks for another us and right now I'm just trying Not to go insane with worry. I really wish I would have bought a Doppler, but my family said it was not necessary :( ugh
 
If this is your first you are less likely to feel the movements or mistake it for something else. It could also be the way the baby is positioned- if he or she is facing your back, for example, you wouldn't feel all the kicks. You don't need a Doppler. I spent a lot of time worrying and googling my first pregnancy, which is normal, but it mae me miss some enjoyable pregnancy moments.I think it would have been worse for me had I used a Doppler to check all the time. I am determined this pregnancy to avoid googling (too much, lol) and worrying in general.
 
I went through the exact same thing from about 15-18 weeks. No symptoms, belly had gone, I could easily of thought I had imagined the last 10 week's and I wasn't pregnant!! But it comes back, I'm now feeling movements quite regularly and my tummy popped back out around 22/23 weeks.
 
I would get a cheap doppler on ebay for reassurance, I never use mine anymore as I'm nearly 29 weeks and feel loads of kicks, but at that time you are at it would always make me feel better. I think my doppler was about 20 pounds and its very good. As for not feeling pregnant, you do have stages when you feel good, it doesn't mean anythinyg is wrong, I felt great around 20 weeks, feeling crappy again now though so enjoy it! X
 
Awww remember the placenta has taken over and you are out the high risk miscarriage rates that are only low even under 12 weeks.

It is very unlikely anything will happen to your baby. I am starting to fe more human at nearly 14 weeks xx
 
Aww. You're not alone. I'm 16 weeks, too, and keep worrying that maybe the baby's heart stopped beating or something (even though I heard it loud and clear just 2 weeks ago at my appt). While I do have a little "bump," I don't have any other symptoms. I can't help but worry I'll get to my 18-week scan and they'll find something wrong.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm getting an elective 16-week scan this week just so I can see the baby moving and hear his/her heartbeat again. :) It'll help me relax before the big scan at 18 weeks! Hang in there. Most babies are just fine and our symptoms are supposed to start going away at this time.
 
I'm 14 weeks and I still have the nausea feeling but other symptoms have seem to dissappear. No more sore breastfeeding and my belly is small, was looking forward to a baby bump
