Sort of worried

OK I am 26 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Doctors have always had trouble locating her heartbeat but when they do it is strong and healthy. My husband has a hard time hearing it too even though it should be easy and I can't find it using a prenatal listener. Bad thing or am I worrying too much? I've miscarried once before but this time everything has been healthy and normal.

Lol she won't even do that! She won't kick unless she feels like it. Or unless she's really really hungry XD

I have a prenatal listener where I can hear kicks and the heartbeat but I've only heard her heartbeat once with it. I usually only listen foe the kicks plus she hates it and kicks it so if I don't feel her for awhile ill use it just to make her kick it.

I just found out today that most OBs prefer us not to use the prenatal listeners for this very reason. Which makes me sad of coarse because its something we wanted to purchase too I am 11wk3days. I would say if baby is moving according to normal schedule then I would not worry.

Lol thank you. There are days she won't move but once in a whole day and others (though rare) where she will regularly move all day. Then again would my anxiety affect her?

as long as you feel well and are feeling movement it should be fine sometimes it can be hard to find it your little one could just be cheeky.
