Still no movement!

Hiya

I am 16 weeks now and 17 on Thursday. This is my second pregnancy.

Should I have felt movement by now? Every now and then if I am laying down I feel like a wave but no kicking or anything yet.

Is this normal?

I'm having my first baby & I know they say with your second you often feel it sooner than first. I was worried as I didn't feel anything that I could confidently say was a kick until about 21 weeks. But at about 18/19 weeks I was feeling that wave that you described. So maybe in a couple more weeks it will be more noticeable for you? Also it does depend on where your placenta is lying as to how soon you feel things.
