My wife is 24W 1 day pregnant. This will be her first successful pregnancy once she delivers a healthy baby with the previous two resulted in failures within the first trimester. (Ectopic and missed miscarriage). However she has still not experienced fetal movements till now. All the previous scans have all come out to be normal. Her placenta is in Anterior position. I am getting worried now. What needs to be done now? Kindly advise

If USG is normal no need to worry. Wait till 26 weeks. As to count for baby movements 1 hour after having meals after lying down in left lateral position in an undisturbed room. If 3 movement perceived in 1 hour it's okay
