Hello!
First I want to reassure you that what you feel is not for sure baby movement.
You can not feel those movements unless you are 17-18 weeks of pregnancy (since this is your second pregnancy).
Second, if you have a delay of your menstruation (because you have not mentioned it here), take a blood test (bHCG) to confirm if you are pregnant or not. That is the most accurate test of pregnancy.
Third, if that test results negative, take care of your bowel. What you feel are bowel movements and that "heart beat" is the abdominal aorta.
Take care.
