Not feeling pregnant

I'm 14 + 4 weeks and the sickness feeling has now gone, I just don't feel pregnant.

This is my first pregnancy so I think I just don't know what to expect, I did read that I wouldn't feel movement until about 16 weeks at least.

Hello,

I am 13 weeks + 4 days and I am feeling slightly better everyday. My boobs have stopped hurting and I am feeling less sick. I know what you mean about not feeling pregnant as I feel like that some days when I feel well! It is normal I believe. People have told me you feel butterfly (almost like a tummy rumble) around 16-18 weeks! I can't wait to get to that stage.

I just feel bloated and fat in the day but at night when I have relaxed and I'm in my pjs my tummy looks more hard and round! I can't wait to start getting a bump :)

Good luck xx

I know how you feel I missed the sickness as weird as it sounds, because at least when i felt sick it was reassuring. And I didn't feel movement till about 20 weeks as I have a anterior placenta, thankfully I have had really bad heartburn all the way through so far so that has kept me thinking that all is ok! If you live in England you should have a midwife appointment at 16 weeks and most of the time they will listen for a heartbeat. That's great to hear! Best wishes Bec

Don't panic! My sickness stopped when I was 14 weeks pregnant with my son and he is now 18 months. It's normal to stop around 12 to 14 weeks! I didn't feel flutters until at least 16 weeks!

Sickness settling is normal ... as for movement I had a normal placenta and didn't feel baby. Till 20 weeks ... so don't panic if you don't feel baby for a while as it's perfectly normal.

I think my first I felt movement at 4 1/2 months.

Next ones you feel earlier because you know what it feels like.

A butterfly flying around in there is what I felt,

Big movement and kicking come later .

If your not feeling sick that's great.

A lot of things like sickness and tender breasts stopped for me at the end of my third month .

Middle months are most comfortable.

I'm 14+2 days and haven't had any sickness and hardly any nausea at all.

The only thing that makes me feel pregnant is the fact I've had two scans and my jeans are getting uncomfortable because of the bloating.

I've read that for first time moms you may not actually feel any movement until around 25 weeks, so we just need to wait a little longer! X

i started to feel movement at just over 14 weeks every pregnancy is different, i also had a bleed at 9 weeks and stopped feeling all pregnancy symptoms just before the bleed got me really panicked, you will always feel like something could be wrong but i am now 37 weeks and almost ready to meet my little girl :) its my first ever baby and first ever pregnancy so still dont know if some of the feelings i have are normal and if you get a rubbish midwife like i had then it really doesnt help, just make sure your appointments are all attended and if you are unsure about anything you speak to your doctor or midwife and after 20 weeks triage :)

Hello!

I was the same, I think everyone goes through that stage of limbo where you no longer feel rubbish, but you don't feel pregnant. When you get to you 16weeks appt ask the midwife if you can listen to the baby's heartbeat, that reignites the pregnancy, and stops you feeling you're in a lull. My midwife let me record mine on my phone. Then the 20weeks when you see this tiny human being in your tummy makes it more exciting, and now I'm at 24weeks and I can feel her wriggling about! That's amazing! Promise you're just in a lull and you'll get excited again soon! :)

All the best and congratulations,

Alice x
