Fetal Movement in Pregnancy: What to Expect & When to Worry

Question
I am in my 25th week. My baby began to move frequently about the 19th week. I have not felt a movement in a week but have not had any other problems no pain, no bleedings, no contractions. Is there something wrong with my baby? should I talk to my doctor?

Answer
Hello Michaela. Your baby is VERY small yet and has a lot of room to move around. The only movements YOU will feel are the ones that happen to be at the front of your uterus where your belly muscles can pick up the sensation of touch. Have a drink of very cold water and lay down in a dark room and see if you feel something. Hope that helps- Cheri.
