Fetal movements second time around

This is my third pregnancy and I'm not feeling any movement at all. I even have a doppler and can't hear the heartbeat with it (even the OB's have trouble so they send me for a heart beat check u/s) I'm not really freaking out but I am a little. Its just weird as I felt movements with the twins at 11 weeks and I think by now we were able to feel some outside kicks.

Is it me or did you get much less movement?

 

I didnt' feel movement with the twins or this baby until 20 weeks and then another week after that DH could feel movement. It is comforting to feel the movement, but hang in there, I am sure you will feel it soon.

 

Perhaps your placenta is on the front this time. That was my issue with the twins. This pregnancy I felt at about 18 weeks. I bet it's coming soon! It's hard not to worry though! :hug99:

 

I'm about a week behind you and haven't started feeling anything yet either. I felt things MUCH EARLIER with my twin pregnancy than with my first singleton pregnancy. I hope that helps a bit - but i agree, if you are worried ask your doc.

 

This forum is my saving grace. I worry but it helps to know I'm not alone!

 

I am having the same issues! And my placenta is anterior, which apparently makes a huge difference...they always have a hard time hearing/finding her heart beat and I even went in because I didn't feel her for two days...she is totally freaking me out!! I'm sure you are fine, but call for re-assurance..it helps me!!

(FYI...i felt the twins and Grace way before 20 weeks, this one I didn't feel until about 22 wks...it totally sucks!!)

 

I felt my twins early too and saw movements early as well. I didnt get strong kicks or see movement until about 21-22 weeks I think! It could be the postion of the baby that makes it hard to feel the movements.

 

I felt Dax a lot earlier than the twins but there was definitely a lot less movement since he was just one baby. There were a couple of times I got so worried that I was getting in the car to go to the hospital to get him checked when he finally kicked. It was definitely a marked difference from carrying two babies.
