Anxiety
Show your support
My 20 week scan is on Tuesday and my an anxiety is through the roof! This is also my first baby and I had 2 miscarriages last year at 11 and 6 weeks. I’ve read a lot about it and spoken to friends and apparently it’s really common. I am trying to distract my brain every time I feel myself spiralling. But I understand completely!
I honestly feel I can’t get excited at all. It’s so hard and I’m not sure if I can feel the baby or not! So glad it’s others just hate everything that could go wrong
They’ll get into a pattern , don’t stress right now
Apparently baby is more active at night because during the day your movements lull them to sleep.. so very normal if you're not feeling them during the day (or at all at this point). Depending on your size, baby's size, position of baby, position of placenta, position of womb, you will feel baby earlier/later on in pregnancy - might not feel them until week 24! ❣️
Have my 20 week on Monday, I'm currently 19+1 and only feel them move at night or when I'm laid down in the mornings, it's pretty normal apparently as they don't move much during the day at this stage as your general moving about in the day keeps them asleep. They don't develop any kind of pattern yet. Speak to your midwife though x
I have been like this for a while, I really thought it was just me. I have my 20 week scan on Tuesday xx
