Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Sometimes women can mistake bowel movements also as movements of the fetus.
So you better consult gynecologist once, undergo physical examination and ultrasound which will clarify the doubt regrading pregnancy.
Ultrasound can also find out any possible cause for your fluttering sensation.
If nothing is there, by visualizing that you can get peace of mind.
Take care.
