Not feeling baby?!

[Stormynights]

So when I was around 16 weeks I started feeling little flutters and what not, now I feel absolutely nothing. I know she's still ok in there because I heard her heartbeat today, but it worries me that I haven't felt anything.
I asked today what position my placenta was, because I thought maybe it was anterior, and she said it was posterior, and I should feel her moving soon.
Is this normal? I just want to feel her move!

She's also a very lazy baby, on my anatomy ultrasound she wouldn't move, and had her legs crossed, so I went for a gender scan the next day. I drank OJ and had a sugary breakfast and she was still barely moving, just squirming when we were poking at her.

I am in the same boat -- this is my first, but I swear I've been feeling movement since around 13 weeks. I'm slender and small, but I think I might have an anterior placenta.

Now, 17 weeks, and nothing at all. No swishes, no flutters, and definitely no kicks. Maybe we just have to be patient?

It stinks! Everyone else can feel their babies! Why not us?!

i am 17weeks & 6days, & I feel occasional flutters. I had an anatomy u/s monday and my lil girl is a busy body. But I didnt feel nothing, but u could see how active she was. I cant wait to feel the actual kicks. I hope its soon.

My little girl never moves! I think if she did move more, then I'd be able to feel it! I hope she's this lazy when she comes out, and sleeps a lot!

i started feeling movements at 10 weeks, little swishes and flutters, i havent felt anything since just after my 12 week ultrasound. thats almost 5 weeks!

Its still quite early to feel lots of movement as baby is still small, even now my baby has lazy days and barely moves at 24 +6 weeks, it freaks me out.

 

[hellzbellz]

i never felt anything till spot on 19weeks n i was getting worried but now the lil bugger wont stop moving!!

 

[JessicaAnne]

I've felt mine a few times, and I get so worried when I don't for a day or so! I have to remind myself theres still loads of room in there!

 

[Kywiki]

I will feel movement one day and then nothing the next. In the reading material I received from my OBGYN it is very common...little ones need to rest Don't worry your little girl will be kicking you like crazy in no time!

I cant wait to feel my baby move. I have friends who felt as early as 18 weeks, I mean like there husband could feel the baby kick that early. So I am really hoping its that early for me too.

It stinks not feeling it! I'm constantly worried until I go to my MW and hear her heart beat. She stays way down low, and the other day I could feel a bulge way down almost like RIGHT above my crotch and I had to move around so she'd get out of there, because it was making my skin itch, but couldn't feel her moving, all of the sudden the bulge and tightening went away. Bleh!

lol everytime I go in for an HB check they spend 20 minutes chasing it around my stomach, it wont stop moving.
With my daughter she was pretty lazy too. During my 20 week scan with her she was just chillin in there they had to look in my belly button to see what she was because she was just sitting there upside down with her legs crossed. I drank a pepsi before I went in too

I haven't felt anything at all yet. It's my 5th baby and nothing....I felt kicks at 15 weeks on my last pg...

 

[Ellemarley]

I'm 24 weeks and feel nothing. It's really rare for me to feel anything... and even then, I'm not sure if it's gas or her. Doctor says not to worry.

 

[Stormynights]

it's nerve wracking right? I think I might have felt a little movement today, but I'm never sure anymore!

 

[jenniferttc1]

I think its cause you have a little lazy baby in there, everything is fine
I feel mine only because the littlest things makes him hyper, but only when I'm laying down I can feel him.

 

[lollipop92]

Don't worry, I felt flutters at about 15 weeks, then nothing til 17+5 when i felt her first kick and now at 20 weeks she is a right lil busy body kicking all the time, OH felt her the other night! She still has her lazy days though, You'll feel them soon I'm sure, just wait until ur gettin kicked in the ribs lol xxx

 

[Stormynights]

I don't want to get kicked in the ribs! Lol. When I thought I felt her moving, I would always say "I wish she'd stop, it's tickling me"....... I think I jinxed myself!!
