i know i have posted a bit about this but im worried about movement.
i felt my first flutters at 15.5 weeks
then nothing til 16+6 when the baby moved all day ( down low)
yesterday and today ive felt it but much lighter movements and only a few times - is that because the baby has moved position?

i also have a lot of pressure down there? esp when i bend
im worried about not feeling it as much or not at all

would appreciate some advice

Don't worry too much. It's normal for babies to have active and then not so active days. You're still quite early too.

I've found that as my bump grows, the feelings in my skin aren't what they were and in some places it's actually quite numb so kicks don't feel as strong as they did unless I feel them with my hand.

Do you have a doppler? Maybe that would help to put your mind at rest on days where baby isn't so active but I'm sure you'll start to feel your baby moving more when it's a bit bigger.

I wouldn't worry too much at all about movement right now sweetie. I am 23 weeks along and have just now started to feel my baby move (kicks, punches, etc.) At your stage, I think you're still early enough to only be feeling sporadic movement and it won't always be daily. Weeks ago, I freaked out like you about not feeling much, but I got a doppler and was reassured that she is alive and well in there! I would recommend getting one. Don't worry too much about it, it will come and then you'll be wishing she'd chill for a couple moments. haha!

Yeah, just what everyone else said

I have days when I dont feel anything at all now still and I started feeling it move at 16 weeksish as well.

Maybe buy a doppler to put your mind at rest?

Im sure everything is fine

As you know, I was worried too. But I was just this second eating my lunch and I got a feeling like the LO turned right over LOL!

I am feeling little bits of movement today and as I sit down all day and when I am busy I don't notice the movements. I am 15+2 wks...

If you are worried Cupcake then speak to you doc or midwife.

thanks girls, i dont think i can get a doppler here but im glad to be reasured by you guys. i have another scan in one month. i just try not to worry but im always nervous. i have felt the baby once or twice today, i guess i just thought that it was setting a trend by moving all day. i still cant believe there is a living baby in me. its amazing.

Still quite early to be feeling a lot of movement

My baby has very active days, then days of almost nothing.

you are still very early on to be feeling proper kicks. try not to worry. baby is still small enough so you don't feel it on the surface even though it is probably doing flips inside.
