2nd trimester
Feeling the baby
LolaGuest ·
I'm 18.5 weeks pregnant with my second baby. I've been feeling the little one since around 13.5 to 15 weeks, and actually pretty much every day. But now I haven't felt her for 2 days. Do you guys recognize this?
My check-up with the obstetrician was fine, but I'm still not completely at ease...

I only felt my son at 19 weeks, and my daughter even later. The ultrasounds are good, so I wouldn't worry about it for now

It's pretty normal that you don't feel your baby every day yet; that usually doesn't start until around 28 weeks, I think. If you do feel them, it's often a good sign. But your baby might have turned a bit, so the movements are more towards the inside than towards the outside of your belly wall. I'd try not to worry too much about it. I understand that's not easy, and I used to get really stressed about it in the beginning too. And if you're really not reassured, I'd call the midwife; that's what they're there for!
