Fetal movements not felt after 22 weeks
Hi.
My wife is 21W 5 days pregnant. This is her first pregnancy ( previous two resulted in failures within the first 11 weeks). However she is yet to feel the fetal movements so far. Her placenta is in anterior position according to NT scan and Anomaly scan. All reports have come out normal with the fetus weighing 335 gms one week ago. Any cause for concern?
