Dont forget though it is your first (i think) so you wont feel it as much this early anyway.
I worry too though, luckily this little !!!!!! is overactive :rolleyes:

Do bumps normally shift around? Bump seems to have moved higher, so I can't feel much of it, and the movements are less. Does that sound normal? It was a very low bump at first.

Bump gets higher as baby/ womb gets bigger - it grows out of your pelvis then. Ultimately gets right up under your ribs (ribcage expands to allow this) and squashes lungs slightly - leading to the late stage breathlessness. Then the baby will drop to engage - with a first pg 2-4 weeks before labour. (With subsequent babies they may not engage until labour) You can tell when this is as the pg mum will suddenly have a gap between boobs and bump again - rather than just a smaller bump leading into a bigger bump. They may also walk a bit strangely (imagine walking around with something the size of a babies head shoved in your pelvic cavity!)

babies are still small enough at your stage to change position quite nicely without you noticing - they still have quite a lot of room to move around.

hmm - jsut reread that and its a bit muddled, but basically I mean that it sounds perfectly ok and normal x

I had a bit of a bleed this morning. I was really panicked. It was brown tho and looked like old blood. I have had a bit cramp but no more than normal.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed it stays where it should x

What greent said
I dont always feel Warren moving, but sometimes if I lay on my back for ages I'll feel him.

Fingers crossed for you too Angela. I've had 2 bleeds so far, one old blood and one started red and went to old... 14 weeks now and baby is holding in there!!

We made the mistake of going to kiddisave today and looking at the prams... I've fallen in love with this one:

Can't buy it... For a start, it's waaaaaaaaaay too expensive... and also the same kind of style as the DD's that's in Mum's garage... I just can't justify the spend... It's so gorgeous though... <sigh>....

Can I just ask anyone who might know this. I bled this morning but nothing since....if something bad was going to happen do you think it would have carried on and not stopped?

Im so worried and dont know if i should settle down...i know it will happen if its going to but i just feel as tho im waiting for it to happen x

angela was it red or brown blood hun? Brown usually isn't too much to worry about but if it was fresh red blood you might want to call the doctor first thing tomorrow...

angela if you are worried give your maternity hospital or NHS24 a ring they would rather you bothered them over nothing than sat a home a worried wreck all weekend! im sure everything is ok but it will ease your mind

FG you wont get regular movements until later on your still quite early on i was about 22/23 weeks before i felt regular hard movements and kicks and TBH im 26 weeks and sick of it now esp when im trying to fall asleep!! try to relax and keep yourself busy so your not worrying and thinking baby 24/7. enjoy just being the 2 of you the now as soon you will be passing each other in the hall half asleep, wondering who each other is lol!!!

angela I've bled 4x in this pg (have never bled in my others) - all bright red but not heavy - more of an ooze (tmi alert - my uterus is prolapsed and cervix peeps out, so I could definitely tell where the blood was oozing from) All is fine with my lodger atm - I'm 13+5 and heard the heart this morning :-)

However, if you are worried then DO call someone - your birth unit/ NHS direct or whoever.
