Thanks. You worry because each site says you should gain x amount by this stage. I'm still not feeling anything. I had bubbles and flutters at 17 weeks. I'm almost 22 weeks now and nothing at all.
Scan was fine last Thursday so I'm wondering at what point are they concerned there's no movement? Baby was asleep at the scan so very little movement there either.

I'm turning into such a worry wort!

I was like this. Now baby constantly moves to the point I can't sleep due to it kicking me in the bladder (10 + loo trips per night to produce a teaspoon of wee! Thanks baby! )! I felt baby move most at night when lying on my back after a sugary hot drink. I still rarely feel baby moving when I'm moving around. I signed up to nct and nhs pregnancy weekly emails. This week (28) was the first time they mentioned about 'counting the kicks' so I reckon you've got a couple of weeks yet (of peaceful sleep...)but if you're worried ask your mw.

Thanks. I do think maybe I'm not feeling loads as I'm so relaxed now I'm not working! The few times I thought I'd felt was at night.

I've just been looking at all the nice things I want to buy as my baby gets bigger. Someone is selling a stunning mamas and papas rocking horse on fb for £20 but it's a long time till I'd be able to use it!

Buy it. Put it away. It'll look lovely in baby's nursery.

Mega cute! Do it! I have a sewing maching table in my living room which is broken just as an ornamanet - wouldn't you love to look a this every day. Gasp imagine the photo opps of you and mini me on the rocking horse even when they are too tiny!

It's cute isn't it! I think it looks in good condition, I've sent her a message

To be fair i'd get it and just use it myself until bubs is big enough!

monty-doggy

Haha! I'm impatiently waiting for a reply. Will prob be tomorrow now!

monty-doggy

Eek! It's mine! Collecting it tomorrow!!!
