I am so insanely jealous of....

...all of you who can feel baby!! Crying

I thought maybe I felt something two nights ago, but I really think it was just digestion. I am so ready to feel LO!!

Maybe I'm too fat. (yes, I'm having a pitty party)

Re: I am so insanely jealous of....

  • Lay on your side tonight with a big fully belly and start pushing pretty hard on your stomach below your belly button. My little one hates that and he will start moving. :) Good luck! And IF that doesnt work... Be patient you will feel your little one in no time!

  • The only time I feel the baby is if I'm sitting in a chair or driving.  But, this is also my 3rd baby.  I'm overweight and I didn't realize I was feeling either of my other kids until I was 18 weeks or so and was at my u/s.

  • I'm with you elisbu!  I haven't felt my baby either. Crying  I had an appointment with my MW today and asked her when I should feel the baby move and she said normally around 17-18 weeks but since I have an anterior placenta it might take me longer to feel movement.

  • I feel the baby a lot when I sit on the edge of the couch and lean forward and put my elbows on my knees.  It puts a lot of pressure on my abdomen so it's easier to feel the baby moving around.

  • I agree... I haven't really felt anything yet.    Occasionally I feel something that might be it,  but I think it's more in my head or just digestion.

  • Same here!  Considering I feel perpetually gassy I keep trying to convince myself its the babe but I really doubt it.  I have an anterior placenta also.  Can't wait to finally be able to feel my baby!

    Although, at the end of the day - I have had an easy pregnancy and feel blessed, so I try to keep my perspective :)

  • I try to 'will' the baby to move too!! I actually layed in bed for like, 10 extra minutes this morning asking baby to move and let me know he/she is there. haha. I've really only felt a few pops here and there. :( I am just looking forward to the daily assurance that there's a baby in there! :)
