Hi doctor. Now I am 5 months pregnant, my last period first days is march 12th. I haven't scan, double marker tests in first week of 4th month. Result is good and everything is fine. Now i'm 18 weeks pregnant but i'm not feeling my baby movements. At which week can I feel my baby movements? And what are the tests or scans are required this month? At which week tab scan will be done?

Hi lybrate-user Congratulations on your motherhood, at 18 weeks you need to go for an abdominal scan, do not worry for movements as they are dependant on the position of the baby the normal movements start around 18 - 20 weeks of pregnancy. I suggest you go for a scan to see the development of the baby Take Folic acid and Calcium tablets which will help in growth of the baby and also aid in brain development of the baby Have iron rich foods like green leafy vegetables, Pomegranate and High fibre foods like bottle gourd and sweet ridge gourd to maintain healthy weight and ensure good health for you and your baby Drink lot of water and go for a walk slow walking for twenty to thirty minutes.
