Movement and stress/irritation

So I'm 17+3 and I hardly feel the baby move (or what I assume to be the baby) or notice it if the baby is moving. Once a day or every couple of days anyway. I'm easily irritated most of the time anymore by people from my job (don't get me started on driving--people are stupid when they drive). We're moving into a new place this week and some of that has been a little stressful trying to move around our work schedules and trying to get help to move. I know it can take awhile for me to feel the baby move but I'm worried since I am trying to not let things bother me for sake of the baby this pregnancy has only enhanced my irritation levels and I don't want to be harming my baby... So far at each appointment everything has been fine, I'm worried ill get to my 20 week and something will be wrong....ftm btw.

I just want to make sure that my hormones aren't causing harm to the baby.

I also recently experienced sharp stabbing pains a few days ago that didn't have any bleeding but at the point where I almost went to the hospital they stopped. My fiancé said it was probably just the baby growing. I haven't felt them since then and I felt the baby yesterday morning-- I get worried about everything.

I didn't really feel my little man move until around 20 weeks. I'm 29 weeks now and he is crazy. He moves all the time. Especially when my husband touches my belly.
