Worried

I'm 13 weeks and been pressing on my stomach to just feel for my baby or a heartbeat and I can't feel anything. I'm starting to get worried. Am I being dramatic...?

I weigh myself a couple times a day (when I wake up, before dinner, and before bed). Body weight fluctuates a lot during the day, even before you are pregnant. I say don't worry about it! :) Stress is never good so do your best to let it go and enjoy it! Apparently now is when we don't have as many symptoms!

I can't feel a knot or anything like my last pregnancy I'm so worried and I lost a couple pounds but I thought this is when the baby grows the most. Should I make a doctors appointment or just chill

Just remember even if you cant feel it the baby can move itself around. It may have scooted itself somewhere that will be harder to feel. Plus with your uterus getting bigger and making more room its kind of like a balloon with a marble in it. While the balloon is small you can feel it but as it inflates itll be harder and harder to find it.

Just weird I usually feel like a lil knot in my stomach but I don't feel nothing. Maybe I'm just worried. Wish we could have doctor visits every day

I didn't feel movement from my first son until I was around 18 to 20 weeks. They just aren't big enough at that stage to make you feel movement yet.
