Feeling baby kick on the outside but not the inside?

[MiniS5]

Hi all,

I’m a FTM and have been feeling baby move / kick since 19 weeks - I’m now 22 weeks. The last couple of days I haven’t felt baby move much when relaxing but I lie down and place my hand on my belly I can feel it kicking / moving against my hand..

is this normal?! I have a posterior placenta by the way!

Sorry super anxious with it being a long awaited IVF baby.

Thanks

Hi, I have had this earlier on too. Ivf baby also, now 32 weeks. Sometimes if I just sat and watched my belly it would move but I didn't feel it on the inside! Now he is too big not to feel the movements on the inside! X

They’ve still got so much space to swim about in at that stage. Try not to worry.... as long as you can see/feel it then you will get to know what is a usual movement pattern for you. And as the other person says as baby gets bigger you won’t be able to not feel it anymore ☺️ Congratulations on your pregnancy x
