18 1/2 weeks ~ can't feel anything?!

[10051024]

Hi Everyone.

Im 18 1/2 weeks and thought id felt small little flick like feelings from when i was about 16/17 weeks. But these past few days i've felt nothing? Is that normal? It's starting to really worry me...

i felt the first at 15.5 then nothing til 16.5 , in the beginning its just sporadic i think dependent on the babies position. since 18 wks i have days where the baby is very active and yesterday i only felt it 3 time and not strong movements. i must admit this worries the hell out of me , but the others have said its normal, babies have active days and non active ones

i think it can be entirely normal yes. it's still early. But go see your doc if you're really stressing - best to not stress!!

Sometimes i wonder whether im feeling the baby as my normal digestive system makes pops etc all the time?! I have an appointment this morn with dr so il keep you posted! x

best of luck

Yeah i have been worrying abit lately, i have felt like flutterings and poppings but nothing definate as yet, wish baby would hurry up!

I was 19 weeks when I had my first definate kicks so I don't think it's anything to worry about. Some people are past 20 weeks.

Good luck at your appointment hun!

Nothing to worry about hun, some ppl feel them later than others. You may even have felt them and simply not recognised them. That was the situation in my case as I wans't really sure I felt anything till around 19/20 weeks I think. Hang in there, I know it feels so much more reassuring when you do feel something.

Well.... i went to the doctors and she said she thought she could hear the baby's heartbeat through her stethascope but couldn't be certain so has asked me to just go to the hosp to double check... so off there in a min. Il keep you all posted. Fingers crossed! IM sure everything is ok but i need to get my mind put at ease x

I didn't really feel much until 19 weeks and kicks until 22weeks

Same here. I felt my LO for the first time at 161/2 weeks, then nothing till about 2 weeks later or so. It drove me nuts, but I knew that was how it could be.

 

[Vickie]

I'm 16 weeks and still haven't felt anything...

Good luck with your next appointment.

i havent had any kicks my baby is very lazy and is sitting at the back of my uterus more. my little boy seems to prefere to wriggle and squirm around xxx

The only time I feel anything is when I lay down to fall asleep and it's just the fluttering feeling I'm just starting to feel her.

I don't think that I have felt anything either. Sometimes I feel flutters, but i can't tell if it's me just digesting something. Keep us posted when you find out what's going on.

Well girls. I went the hospital and as i was waiting to be seen the baby had an active half and hour and kicked and squirmed etc as it usually does. I felt like a fraud! I still waited to be seen and the dr put the doppler on for me to hear the heartbeating nice and strong. What a relief!!

 

[JessNJeremy]

that's a relief! I bet you feel so much better nowI have been worried too because I don't feel much for sometimes days at a time so I ordered a doppler lol it's good reassurance! I"m glad everything went well for you hun
