Still not feeling movement?

[yogachick79]

Is anyone else in the same boat? I was so aware of movement with DS and I can't tell anything yet. I'm in my 15th week (14 wks and 5 days) and showing quite a bit. Just wondering if anyone else is this far along and not noticing anything.

I'm not worried, we got to see the babe and hear the HB last week but I'd love to be feeling things at this point.

I'm 13weeks and 5days I think and I haven't felt anything. When I was at the midwife last week they told me maybe since its my second by my next appt at 17weeks but for sure by around 20 weeks. Seems so far away...

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm due the end of October (16w2d today) and just started feeling anything regularly the last few days. And I don't even feel tons of movement yet. The babies are still really small at this point! I have a friend who is two weeks ahead of me and hasn't felt much either! Everyone is different!

[tiffanymm]

I haven't felt the baby move yet either. I can't wait to though, I'm really excited!

i am in week 15 and noting

OB warned me that week 16 was real as early as i should expect it -- evne with it being a 2nd child.

OB is "doubtful" of the moms who say they feel the baby in week 12 adn 13

I am anxiouly waiting.

but i also know i do not have as much quiet time as i did preggo with T -- and I know with all the knees in my tummy at night and so on -- the poor baby doesn't stand a chance

[sorteep]

I felt both my others very early (12-13 wks) and I KNOW it was baby BC my OB laughed at me and he was doing a US at the time and I told him everytime the baby kicked.. he was amazed and laughed and told me he would believe me after that when I told him things (he has!)
This is a very quiet baby for me, I was only "sure" I felt baby a few days ago at 15 wks 3 days (but measure a week ahead.. so prob 16 wks 3 days) I was really getting nervous and I have felt nothing since.. this worries me since I felt constant movement from so early with the other two.. I have been reassured not feeling definite moves is teh norm (until as late as 20 wks) I ma hoping (praying!) we might just have one of those calm quiet babes this time.. my boys are both like Taz (in utero and to this day!!) could I have one of those calm, coloring, sleeping, playing noncrying kids??? I have MNO experience with one of those!! anyway, *try* not to stress, we wil all feel kicks and squirms soon...

Don't think I've felt anything here either and I'm around 14-15 weeks along. Didn't really feel anything until 18-19 weeks with DD so I'm not expecting anything for another couple of weeks. It would be nice to feel something soon though - I hear you on that.

[StacieM]

I didn't feel anything since yesterday (15w1d) and nothing since. I'll probably have to wait a few days at least to get to feel that "for sure" movement again. But I'm quite sure that soon, it will be more regular. With my other pgs, I remember around 16 weeks being when I started feeling things more regularly. So this is a little earlier for me and this is my 6th pg, I have 4 lc.

not in your DDC but wanted to say I really just started feeling movement in the past 4 days, and I am 17 weeks!

[meisterfrau]

I have thought maybe I felt something a couple of times, but I am not sure and it's not consistent. I can't remember when I first felt movement the first time I was pg. I think the mamas in our DDC who are feeling movement are feeling it early, not that we're feeling it late. I'll be at 16 weeks tomorrow.

According to what most stuff I read, most mamas feel movement between 17-20 weeks. In fact, I was just lurking in October and some of those mamas haven't felt anything yet either! I don't doubt the mamas who say they felt theirs weeks earlier than that, but I guess I can envy them a little bit!

Of course, remind me I said that when I'm 8 months and have a tiny foot jammed in my ribcage. I'll probably be ok with a little less forceful movement then!

[chubbycheeks]

Nothing here yet either, and I am preggo with #3 and at 15 weeks 2 days!

[monocyte]

Not really sure, so I'm leaning towards no. 14 weeks, 5 days. I know I will breathe a bit easier when I do feel something!!

[*Lindsey*]

I've thought I felt baby a few times, but I'm not 100% certain. I'm 15w2d and remember starting to feel my DD (my 2nd) around 16 weeks or so. I know I didn't feel DS (my 1st) until 20 weeks.

I'm really looking forward to feeling him/her wiggle around.

[Mama Bear]

nothing yet here - though with ds I remember the early movements were difficult for me to distinguish b/t the baby or gas

[ChiaraRose]

I have felt nothing yet, but don't really expect it either. it will come....

I think sometimes its harder to notice movement in subsequent children--you are so busy running after the other one(s) that you don't habe enough time to stop and notice! Plus, for me at this stage, I only feel the baby when I am lying down (especially on my back)--how often do we even have time to do this???

I hope this is why I haven't been feeling this one so much...I felt ds at 13 1/2 weeks and was feeling this one from 11 -12 weeks, but not so much in the last few days. Of course this makes me paranoid and I poke my belly gently to get the baby to "wake up" and move around so I can be reassured. My belly is still growing, so that's a good sign but I am so tempted to buy that BonBebe thing they have at BabiesR'Us to listen to the HB. Has anyone used it? Did it work?

[stanswife]

I was wondering this myself, so it's comforting to read others' responses. I'm about 16 weeks right now and have felt nothing, but heard the super strong heartbeat two days ago. With my DS I felt movement at 17 weeks. I'm waiting and excited for the first time, though :.

ETA: I'd forgotten that a couple days ago I felt a little kick on my bladder. It took me a minute to realize what it was. Made me smile.

[mittendrin]

I am 16 weeks and a few days and I did feel movement around 10/11 weeks but now very rarely do I feel anything. Maybe every 3 days or so a gentle nudge. I felt the movement much stronger w both my sons before so I am a little worried sometimes. But the belly is growing and I am superbusy too, so I guess I shouldn't get paranoid. I figure the baby could have turned and is kicking against the back of the uterus so I can't feel it all that much...?

[maisiedotes]

I swore up and down that I felt movement, but I asked my Dr and she said even 16 weeks can be on the early side. (I am 12w2d). She said 18 weeks will most likely be more accurate for me.
