Fetal Movement

You probably won't feel your baby kick until around week 16 and 22, even though the baby has been moving since week 7 or 8. You may have already witnessed these movements during an ultrasound. This is often known as a fluttering feeling or a grasshopper walking across your belly during the first movements.

"Like someone ripping your guts out around 8 months!"

It's generally not recommended to move a birdhouse with baby birds inside, as this can cause stress to the parents and young birds. If absolutely necessary, do so with great care and ideally during a time when the parents are away, minimizing disturbance. Always check local wildlife regulations, as some species may be protected during nesting. If you're unsure, it's best to consult a local wildlife expert.

That is a biologically impossible thing. If he were to go that long without going to the wash room he would have serious medical issues with a great risk of death. Going for more than a few days without going to the bathroom can result in serious medical issues. If you think this may be true and he is not exagerating, I would advise you to go to a doctor as soon as possible.

normally the baby stops moving around during the last month of pregnancy because it dont have much room. plus the baby rotates head down due to its time to be born.

The baby is mostly active starting around 4months, when you will feel like there are bubbles or butterflies dancing in your stomach. These kicks get harder as days pass.

ok

It truly depends on the baby, how big the baby is, and how much room you have in your womb. Typically, a baby becomes less active because it is harder for him/her to move around. My little girl was not typical though. The movement did not change at all even as the time drew closer. I am an average sized woman, and with how large my belly was, I thought maybe I had a lot of room and she was smaller than average. (Mind you, my last ultrasound was at 6 months, so all size estimates were just that, estimates.) So, imagine my surprise when she finally arrived and she was a whopping 8lb 2 oz, 21 inch long baby. I must of had a lot of room in there for her to do her somersaults!

Yes you could be, i felt my fluttering all over my abdomen during my pregnancy. It feels like a fly trying to get out of a bottle, a buzzing,throbing sensation.I would go to the doctors to be sure.Good luck!

YOu will not feel anything in your belly until you are about 4 months pregnant.

girl

At 32 weeks a baby would generally survive, however may need to be in an incubator for a while and have some help breathing

If you have IBS or Crohn's like myself and my husband, then you will have movement in your stomach caused by the way your body is processing the food you intake.

If you are sure you are only 8 weeks then fluttering is most likely gas. Women who have previously been pregnant often feel fetal movement much earlier than in a first pregnancy.

too early possibly. Or it's something different. go to your doctor

Can you feel the head or arms as well? The baby could either be lying down along the bottom of your uterus, so legs at lower left side and head at lower right side. Are you carrying quite low? If you are, then I expect that's the position the baby is in. If not, the baby could be at diagonals, with his/her feet at the lower left side and head at the top right

yes, usually just above the pubic pone.

I have many people telling me that it's impossible for me to be feeling my babies move so early on but I KNOW what I am feeling. First off it was gas you would think the gas bubble would travel around and eventually come out but my movement is all in the same place, etc. For me the twins will be babies 6 & 7 so I know a thing or two about movements and I know that for me with every baby I begin to feel them move earlier than the last. I think that it all depends on how you carry them, how sensitive you are to the movements, and how tuned in to your body you are. I am 8 weeks and every now and then I feel them flutter about and even take a tumble or two. Not everyone is "text book" so don't stress yourself with thinking you must be going crazy - because you will drive yourself and everyone around you crazy, trust me I KNOW! LOL Good luck and Congrats!

You could be or your going to have a big baby.

Painful cramping, similar to when you have your period, but more painful and for more prolonged time.

Headaches, period-like blood but coming and going.

Small piece of tissue with veins in it.

Regardless, whether the embryo was miscarried or not, take a pregnancy-test, the pregnancy hormones remain in the system for more than 2 weeks.

That's how I found out just today I was pregnant and lost it.

Good luck to all the women out there. I just also had miscarriage from an unknown pregnacy. I didnt realise, but i was experiencing prenancy symptoms (upset stomach in the mornings, sensitivity to certain food smells) and when i went to the toilet, something was there that shocked me. It was an embryo, with its cord so tiny it was barely there.

There were no symptoms to know i'd had a miscarriage, and if i hadnt had the heartbreaking and shocking experience of seeing this I may never have known. Since then, my period was heavier than normal and i had some painful cramping but it was al gone after a day or two.

Just make sure you go to the doctor and have an ultrasound so that you know all is ok. And talk to those you love, as the emotional pain is the worst of all.

At 5 weeks you can't feel fetal movement because it is too small (about 1/25 inch long). You won't feel movement 'til the 5th month or so when the baby is about 6 inches long.

You are probably right to have some concern. If you've only noticed this for one day I wouldn't worry, but be watchful and if the reduced movemet continues see your doctor sooner than later.

If it's getting all it needs from the placenta a baby will kick. If the placenta starts to fail to supply enough or the baby becomes ill, there will be fewer kicks
