Amcolecchi- I didn't feel any movement at all with my first baby until 20 weeks at least so try not to worry too much

 

[Workinonbaby2]

Awww all you ladies look so cute!! I am 16 1/2 weeks and still no movement I am starting to get worried. Everyone else seems to be feeling movements around this time or earlier!!! Anyone start feeling movement later?

With my DS I didn't feel anything till almost 20wks it's perfectly normal. With this being my second I've felt some movements this week and little ones here and there at night time if I was really still last week. I'll be 18wks on Tuesday. So I'm sure baby is just GREAT!! No worries!! You'll know and it's by far the most exciting part of pregnancy to me!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Aww thank you ladies!! That does make me feel better! I get a private ultrasound next Saturday too so I think seeing the baby will help!

 

[wamommy]

amcolecchi, ask the sonographer at your ultrasound if your placenta is in the back or front. My money is in the front! With my son I didn't feel anything until around 20 weeks, and he was #3!

 

[bookworm0901]

Mine was in the front with my son and I didn't feel movement til 20 weeks.

 

[momofone08]

I have an anterior placenta this time and haven't really felt anything. I felt a little flutter yesterday. Hoping they get stronger soon.

 

[Amcolecchi]

OOH thank you!! I will for sure do that!!!

[caitlenc]

AmCol, I was 18+ weeks with my first pregnancy, and even then it was very infrequent. Definitely nothing to worry about!!

Re:Early movement..

I wasn't expecting to feel movement for at least a few more weeks, since this is my first. That being said, last week I started to feel this tapping sensation and now I am positive it's the baby. It's pretty early for a first timer but the doctor says that whether you feel movement, etc depends on a lot of factors so not to worry if you feel it later.

In other news, only a little over a week until our anatomy scan!! I'm so excited!

Most excited about? Making sure LO is healthy at the scan in December.
Most anxious about? The baby's health.
Anything else? Am I the only one who hasn't gained any weight yet? I'm utterly confused, since I gained easily (and quickly!) with the other 3. I'm actually still down about 5 pounds from pre-preg weight due to the serious rough patch between 5 and 10 weeks.

 

[kksy9b]

wamommy: i haven't gained any either! I lost some at the beginning and I still haven't gotten back to my pre-pregnancy. I was 20 lbs overweight going in so I am definitely not complaining!

How far along? 18+6
Morning Sickness? Thank goodness it went away around 10 or 11 weeks!
How are you feeling/any ailments? I am feeling wonderful! I'm in a good in between time- first trimester issues are done but I'm not swollen or uncomfortable or anything yet.
Next scan? In one week- November 11th!
Team/Gender I think girl, DH thinks boy... we'll find out on the 11th!
Most recent baby purchase? I've been holding off. I did spend $20 for raffle tickets for an event at work... and i won a basket full of baby stuff! Boppy, diapers, wipes, receiving blankets, burp cloths, etc...
Next baby purchase? Hmm.. not sure. Will probably hold off until after my showers in January and February.
Most excited about? Finding out the gender in a week and kicks to be strong enough that my husband can feel!
Most anxious about? Baby's health- DH has genetic heart condition that baby will be tested for at birth.
Anything else? Everything is going so quickly! I can't believe I'm almost halfway done and that much closer to meeting my little one!

I'm still yet to gain any weight, the thought of food just makes me feel sick. I usually love food so finding this really hard. I gained over 3 stone with the last one so hopefully won't be anywhere near that this time.
