is there a baby in there?

Hiya

Im being a moaning minnie.

I dont seem to have felt any movement since i felt those popping sensations a week or so ago and its making me wonder whether I just imagine those feelings in the first place? I try so hard to focus and lay so still to see if i can feel any movement but i dont think i can

its worrying me, i thought by now i should feel popping quite regularly

Hey

Everything will be fine with baby! Bet he/she will be dancing around in there lol it will just be too early to feel it.

At my scan yesterday the sonographer said that she has had loads of people in at 20+weeks who haven't felt anything, she also said that I have a thick placenta which means I'm more likely to be further on before I feel anything(I didn't know that, but there ya go ) She said it's quite likely I won't feel anything until 23/24 weeks, so don't worry hun it's totally normal x

A member of my family is 2 weeks behind me and she has only felt popping a few times - it's making her really anxious and god forbid anyone ask her if she has felt the baby lol We have tears and tantrums!

She saw her midwife yesterday who found as strong heartbeat straight away and they could even hear the baby kicking the doppler yet she still could not feel it move.....she is such a thin girl too bless her. It's put her mind at rest tho so thats good.

I suppose what I am saying (in between all that ramble) is it does not matter how big you are - either you feel it or you don't but apparently with your first it's very common not to feel regular movements until around 23/24 weeks xxx
