Baby's movement

kokoLeia2012

Just wanting to know if maybe its possible that because of my c-sec from last pregnancy that I'm not feeling baby move as much or even as early as I did with the last two. I'm 18+4 today.

I would love to know the answer to this as well. I am pregnant with my 3rd and have had 2 previous c-sections. I am 20 weeks tomorrow and know I felt movement before this with both my kids.

Glad I'm not the only one.

My midwife told me that it is very likely that the incision scar can reduce the feeling of movement, especially if you still have numbness around it (I do). I have only started to feel regular movement in the past 2 weeks. I'm 21+5.

Hi I'm 19+1 and haven't felt much either This is my 4th and I definitely felt before this with all my last 3! (16weeks ish) but I was told my uterus is stretched and battered after my last who is only 14 months old, so perhaps that's the reason. Good luck for us all feeling our babies soon. Xx

My youngest is 5. I just really want to start feeling her. I always get so nervous between appointments.

I understand. I have a 5 year old and a 8 month old. Felt them at 14 weeks. This time around I didn't feel anything. Found out I have an anterior placenta. I'm 20+5 and just started feeling kicks 2 days ago. Hard ones that came out of nowhere. Now I can feel them all the time. You will start feeling it soon.

I'm 19+3 and not feeling movement yet. Kind of worrying me.

I am 20w today and I barely feel movements. I know he hangs out in there breech, because my US tech gets irritated with him. Maybe your baby is just in a different position, so you can't feel the movements.

I only started feeling my little one move at 20weeks. Like many of you I was worried when I didn't feel anything at 19 weeks so I booked a private scan for 20 weeks (actual 20 wk scan was booked for 22wks and I couldn't wait that long ) and low and behold the day after my scan I felt him move for the first time! Both the midwife and my SIL said to not expect movement earlier than 20wks. My SIL only felt her little girl from 24wks onwards.
