Im 20 weeks 2 days pregnant with my third child. Shouldnt i be feeling movements by now? This seems really strange. The last few days its like the movements arent there anymore......I have an appointment on wen with my dr. And i just had an ultrasound last wen. and everything looked fine, except the placenta was over my cervix. What should i do. Has anyone not had movements at 20 weeks?

Drink some juice (or something with sugar) and then lie down for about an hour. Count the movements every 15 minutes. It may just feel like a tickle. I never felt forceful movements until I was around 28 weeks. If you don't feel some movement, call your doctor. The sugar gets the baby going. If you've been walking and moving, you may have just "rocked" the baby to sleep.
Each pregnancy is different and each baby is different. You may just not be noticing the movements. I hardly felt my 2nd baby move at all, but on the ultrasound she was all over the place.
Good luck!

I am 21 weeks and just felt movements for the first time friday, it is so great. I thought I should of been able to also. It could be where your placenta is, if you are overweight it takes a while. Talk to you doctor and they can better inform you. I would think that this being your second you would be able to feel it kick sooner but everyone is different.
Good Luck and Congratulations!

Even with placenta previa you should still be able to feel movement at some point during the 5th month. If your last u/s was fine, you shouldn't worry about it. However if you did have movement and suddenly the movement stopped, that's cause for concern.

I would try not to worry too much until you see your Dr but you def need to see him/her. If you have been feeling movements with this pregnancy before and now you don't you need to find out why! Sorry this didn't help much, i hope everything goes ok for you, good luck! x

I always felt at 14 weeks! Everyone is different, but the ultra sound would of or should have had the dr. concerned if something was wrong! Good luck!

i am pregnant with my second. i didn't feel my baby move until i think the 22 week my doctor said not to worry cause your body is used to the feeling so it could take longer for you to realize that baby is actually moving.
