Parents of 3 children please

Question

i am pregnant with baby number 4 and i am just wondering at what week you may start to feel baby move, i am 13wk 5days now and felt my 3rd baby at 15 week but my doctor has said i wont feel baby number 4 until after that for some reason,

when did you all feel your 3rd/4th child moving?

Answer 1

15 weeks

Answer 2

Its because youre tummy muscles grow weaker withe every pregnancy, they are not as tight as the first, third time round.

So I would say about 16 weeks xx

Answer 3

My 3rd was definitely later than the others to be felt kicking, about 3weeks or so later than the others, about 16weeks ish I think although she is 4 now so its a while back!

My midwife told me that that is because your muscles in your tummy area stretch a bit with each pregnancy, and even if you exercise etc after the birth, they never go totally back to the way they were before, so that on each pregnancy there is that little bit more room for your womb to grow before it gets to the point where you can feel baby kicking.

That was how it was explained to me anyways! ;)
