This is my 3rd pregnancy (first 2 ended in cm at 6 weeks) and I'm 18w5d but still have not felt any movement. I have a doppler and baby's heart rate is fine (135-151 bpm) so I know he/she is ok but I'm worried that I can't feel kicks yet.
 
It's completely normal. Lots of women don't feel anything till after 20 weeks. :)
 
I just worry, I'm looking forward to feeling my baby move!
 
I didn't feel much of anything either until about 19 weeks or so. I have an anterior placenta, cushioning her kicks so that is why. Good thing you have a doppler and a strong heartbeat! You'll feel things soon, maybe you've already felt movement and didn't realize it was baby.
 
With my first it was 19 week 3 days I felt the first movement but even after that it was a while before I felt it again x
 
I was between 22-24w with my first. no bump till 28w
 
Try not to worry, its so normal. Im 17+5 with #4 and i still dont have any movement either. :)
 
With my second I didn't feel any movement till just after 20 weeks. I had anterior placenta xx
 
I was worried when I didn't feel anything with twins though on the other hand I was sure they were fine and could hear them well on the doppler (and I was getting bigger which must mean they were growing).I only felt them some days after my 20 week scan,feel them all the time now. Do you know if you have posterior or anterior placenta?
 
I'd say anything before 18 weeks is lucky :) on average it's after 20 weeks. Depends on your build, where baby is and placenta etc
My movement got strong starting 20 weeks, before that it was very light.

Now my baby is having a growth spurt I can tell he's sleeping more, still kicks, but not for long periods like he has done. But strong!

Fingers crossed you feel movement soon, you'll love it so much :)
 
Hey, apart from a few flutterings I haven't felt anything either but I'm picking up strong heartbeats on the Doppler. I think its normal. Looking forward to my scan to find out where they are laying. Try not to worry x
 
I didn't feel anything until 19 weeks with my first and even then they were flutters I didn't get proper kicks until 20+ weeks! This is my second and I've only felt slight flutters x
 
I didn't feel anything till about 19 weeks and that was only if I really paid attention. It's still early and totally normal :) x
 
I Was going to post the same.. With no.1 I felt early. With this one I got a couple of kicks at 14 weeks but think it was fluke of how they were king a d they kicked above/around side F placenta.

I think now the placenta has grown it is masking things more. I'm 18 weeks. I'm having momentary concerns what if somethings gone wrong, I just keep pushing this thought out of my mind. I don't have doppler but got scan in less than 2 weeks
 
I'm 21 + 5 and I still don't feel movement regularly. I feel nudges here and rolling, and there but they are getting stronger. :flower:
