Anxiety
Hi all,
I'm 19 weeks on Sunday and haven't really felt much at all. I think at 16 weeks with my 1st I started feeling her quite regularly and I had an anterior placenta with her aswell! I expected to feel more and earlier with this one. I'm starting to get a bit anxious and haven't got my 20 week scan until the 9th! What's everyone else feeling? Specifically those who have had one already xxx

@Beth Thanks for your reply! Maybe I was just really lucky with my first and like you say that set the bar for me! It was only flutters but seemed to be almost every day I felt them! Yeah I have the 12 week scan on the fridge so I can see it all the time! I just hate the wait between scans lol xx
Same with me absolutley nothing movement wise and i am sure first time round my little girl was at a routine with her movements. I just think ive got a lazy baby. Ive been doing some research and it says 16-24 weeks is the time period for movements so try not to stress im not. X
@Cerys I know I expected something way before now! Yeah will try not to and see how it goes over the next few weeks! Xx

This is my first baby and I haven't felt owt yet at 18 weeks. But from everything I've read and been told by the midwife, that's really normal, and my best friend didn't feel owt until around 24 weeks in both her pregnancies. So I think you were quite unusual in your first pregnancy! Its understandable that you're feeling anxious about it, especially with the bar being set so early from your first, but if you've been told everything is going fine so far then you just have to trust that. I'm eagerly anticipating my 20 week scan as well, just to be able to see them again and know they're still okay in there! For now while I can't feel owt, I just keep looking back at that 12 week scan to reassure myself xx
