No movement yet?

I am 16 weeks and still have'nt felt any movement. Sometimes I think I might of felt something and then nothing. With my first son I was definetly feeling him already I am getting nervous. Is anyone feeling their twins that is around the same weeks i am?

 

I started feeling mine by week 20... Don't stress out Mama...it will happen soon.

I started feeling them around 16-18 weeks. at first it was like gas bubbles. I wouldnt be too concerned unil 22 weeks. it also depends on how they are laying in your uterus and where your placenta is. my placenta is two fused into one big one and its on the top of my uterus. so if there were to be movement up there i could never feel it! i didnt feel the second baby for a while and then it was little bits as he was laying behind the first baby. now that he is bigger he has moved side by side with his brother and I can feel EVERY MOVEMENT, no matter how big or small! dont worry you will feel them soon enough!!! then it will be never ending (and can be painful if they are on your cervix)!!! enjoy your early movements! and dont worry!

 

I didn't feel any movement until around 18 weeks, and even then I didn't start feeling them consistently until 20+ weeks. :hug:

 

I didn't feel the babies kick until around 18 weeks are maybe a lil longer then that ..Then all the sudden BAM!!! in a billion directions lol

 

I felt mine about 20 weeks. I didn't feel the twins nearly as much as my singletons since they are often facing each other and kicking each other. you will not be able to feel much of that. With a singleton, you feel every little movement. Don't compare the two or you'll drive yourself crazy!

 

Thanks ladies, for all your replies!

 

I didn't truly feel them until around 22/23 weeks and only have been able to tell who is who since about 29 weeks. Try not to worry too much, I know, easier said than done.

Good luck momma!

I didn't feel mine till 19w; both placentas were anterior so that kept me from feeling them earlier.

 

I didn't feel anything consistent and certain until 20 weeks. It depends on where the placentas are located too. Don't stress yet. Pretty soon they will be going non-stop! Hang in there.

 

I was 21 weeks before I felt any movement. I had an anterior placenta and a posterior placenta.

 

I've been worried about this too - I was sure I felt them a few times at 14 weeks and then nothing for the last month. I am just starting to feel little flutters now at 18 weeks. I spoke to another woman who has had twins and she said she felt them much later than her singleton birth - at about 22 weeks. At the moment I can't wait to feel movement but I am pretty sure once it starts I'll be wishing it away!

 

About 20-20 weeks I started feeling my babies. They haven't stopped yet! I have two anterior placentas and feel movement the best at the top and sides of my belly. I really feel very little at the front of my belly.

 

I know it's hard, but try not to worry. Because this is my fourth pregnancy and it's twins, I assumed I'd feel them really early. I felt at least one of my others around 16 weeks. But this pregnancy was different and I didn't feel them for sure until closer to 19 or 20 weeks! I was so worried. But all babies and all pregnancies are different.

 

I'm also just starting to feel something at 20 weeks. At 16 I wasn't feeling anything yet either.
