worrying too much with non movement?

Question

Hi guys, 
Just wondering if anyone is like how I'm feeling. 
I am now 17+5, I felt baby flutters at around 14 weeks, especially after my bath most nights, and laying down. 
These 3 days, I have felt nothing. I called my midwife, and she said it's surprising that I felt anything so early, and not to worry, I've got 3 boys, and had one stillbirth. 
Am I worrying unnecessarily? 
I have drank cold juice, poked my tummy, lay on my front, still nothing. 
Could baby be hiding? 
Thanks. X

Answer

Hi Michelle, 
Thanks.

I have already called, I feel like a nuisance now, I called twice. I might call my doctor tomorrow. (It's Sunday afternoon here) 
The midwife said, even if they use the Doppler, it's too early to hear heartbeat. She said to wait till my next scan at 20 weeks, (8th Nov) before I go in. 😕
I've been searching the Internet and some girls have been like me and not felt anything but then they felt it the next day. 
Thanks for your input.  Xx

My little one moves to talking or singing, oddly not when I'm speaking to anyone else only when I'm speaking directly to her. And I also use the flashlight in my phone against my belly to make her move. My other app said to try it and it works for me they can sense the light and move way from it

Answer

I'm almost 22 weeks and I have hardly felt anything at all yet!! It's definitely freaking me out but the midwife said since my placenta is in the front I shouldn't worry until I'm past 24 weeks... EVERYTIME they check the heartbeat with the Doppler it's absolutely fine and I use mine at home as often as I feel really worried... but I totally understand it's a horrible feeling not k owing what's going on!! Xx

Answer

I'm in the same boat. This is my second and I have felt this one move at about 15 weeks ish. I haven't felt much the last couple a days I drank cold, sweets, and nothing. My next scan is my 20 week one nov 7th! I've been freaking out too. I wish I had a Doppler to ease my mind.

Answer

Try putting an ice cube on your belly and moving it around and sit and wait lol. I've done that a couple times and mine starts moving pretty immediately.

Answer

I had early bleeding too! I've got an "erosive" neck of womb? But they said it's normal for people who have had a few children. 
I might actually go and get a Doppler and reassure myself. Xx
