2nd pregnancy mom's....

Do any of you not feel the baby move a lot yet? I'm almost 20 weeks and don't really feel the baby move all that much yet, I feel a little tap once in a while but nothing crazy yet and I get so worried. I'm sure everything is fine, but I just can't wait for my level 2 to see him or her again! Chat Icon

I posted this the other day Melissa and I swear it's because we don't have as much rest time as we did with the first. I used to feel my daughter more when I was sitting down relaxing but now I don't have that as much with this one so I don't feel it.

I worry too but I am sure everything is fine.

Re: 2nd pregnancy mom's....

Yup, I was like that. With my first (my son) he was doing backflips and was just plain crazy in utero. With my second (DD), she was so laid back and much quieter than my son was in utero. (things changed once she came out though Chat Icon)

I also think that it has alot to do with the fact that you already have a little one around. It's sad but you are so busy caring for the baby that's here, that you don't have as many quiet moments to appreciate each and every kick as much as you did with the first. Chat Icon

I too didn't feel much until about 22 weeks. Now baby is knocking on my belly all the time, especially at 3 am!

I guess I'm the opposite. I'm almost 24 weeks and I feel the baby constantly. She's always moving, way more than my DS did. It's just in the last few weeks though that the movement has really increased a lot. I started feeling movement at 12 weeks, but it wasn't as frequent as it is now.

I am not sure if it is more than DD#1 because she is almost 7, but I feel this little girl like crazy. DD and DH have felt her too, bigtime! I am around 22 weeks, and have been feeling her a lot since about 17-18 weeks.

Re: 2nd pregnancy mom's....

Thanks girls, I guess I still have a few more weeks to feel better movement and kicking, Julia was very quiet in my tummy too, so I guess this baby will be the same.

I'm about 19 weeks and I've only felt the baby move 1 or 2 times. It makes me nervous, too. I have an OB appt tomorrow...so I'll get to hear the heartbeat. Five more months of worrying!

See the kicking with this baby started early, but now that its bigger I'm thinking the kicking is so post to happend a lot, the baby only kicks me once every couple of hours. I hope its this calm and quiet when its out of my belly--lol

I had a dr appt last night and I asked the dr if it is normal for me NOT to feel any flutters or movement. I am 16 weeks and he said that the heartbeat is normal the sono's are fine and so are the results from the 12 week ultra screen, so NOT to worry!

If I wasnt sick everyday, I wouldnt even think I was pregnant..

Re: 2nd pregnancy mom's....

I felt this baby for the first time earlier but I agree that I don't feel the baby move as much this time around yet. I am only 16 weeks so I'm not getting nervous yet.

Yes, she is definitely not as active as my first, however I was told many times by the doctors it's just that I am so stretched inside you won't really feel it as much as the first since my muscles were so tight thenChat Icon Chat Icon However she is moving just as much.

ETS: I did start feeling her at 14 weeks, but not frequent. Still only at 26.5 weeks she moves 2x a day whereas my 1st was all day /night long.
