Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Ideally, in multiple pregnancies, the baby movements are being perceived by 16 to 18 weeks. You may wait another week and then go for your antenatal visit and get an ultrasound scan done. You are already due for your anomaly scan between 18 to 20 weeks. That should answer all your concerns.
