A member asked:
I am 16 weeks pregnant with #3 and have not felt the baby move yet. i am 20 pounds overweight - could that be why? or should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe,maybe not: Many women who have undergone prior pregnancies can detect fetal movement by 16 wks but some don't until later.
