Pregnancy Hormones

My MIL and a family friend have askd me two separate times if I have felt Elias move yet. When I tell them I haven't....they panicked and told me there was something wrong, why haven't I called the doctor about it and yada ya. Well, number one: it's my first one. I think I've felt something but it could have been me breathing or my heartbeat. It's not a big deal, I know it'll take me awhile to recognize that feeling. Plus, it's going to be something really light and subtle right now. Number two: my doctor did tell me at my last ultrasound that my placenta is in front so he's kicking that instead of me. Nothing to worry about. He's moving. I have video evidence of him stretching out and moving around on the ultrasound tech (which, turns out I do need another one in a few weeks because they couldn't get good pictures of his heart due to the way he was laying).

It just...gah...drives me crazy. Every women, every pregnancy is different. Hormones have me even crazier than usual. And it's only gonna make me crazier haha.

Re: Pregnancy Hormones

  • They shouldn't make you feel like that. You are right, every pregnancy is different. I didn't feel Liliana until 18 weeks and it was just a flutter at first. I had no clue what it was and I actually called my OB because I thought something might have been wrong, lol.

    Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.

  • Sending hugs your way! I thought I was feeling Abby moving, but it ended up being that she was moving and touching my fibroids and that is what I was feeling. I was so upset when I found out it wasn't her little foot or arm I was feeling, but fibroids. Every pregnancy is different and it is fine if you are not feeling your LO just yet. Good luck at your next U/S.

    Oh yeah. I am for sure not worried. Like I said, I've seen him moving on the U/S. And I could have felt him move, but maybe it wasn't him. He'll be kicking me eventually lol. I just hate how panicky they got. Like for once, as a first time mom, I am not worried and calm about something and you're panicking. I think people forget I'm 19 weeks too, a lot of people think I"m a lot further along.

  • You have plenty of time to fee it him move.  They need to quit rushing you and let you enjoy it.
  • I agree with everyone. They shouldn't be panicking you at all.

  • I agree that they need to calm down.  I know I was around 18-22 weeks when I first started feeling Lily but also wasn't sure if it was her or something else.  This time around I could tell and also felt this one a lot sooner.  It's actually a common question that all pregnant women get asked a lot.  And it's annoying no matter what pregnancy you are on.  Hugs!!!!
