Was wondering how much movement/kicks you ladies were feeling?

Ive been feeling our girly since about 19 weeks, first it was 1 kick a day, usually in the evening.
This week a few days she was pretty active, kicks on and off for like 20mins at times..
Sometimes I feel her 1 or 2 kicks but several times a day.
But yesterday she was pretty quiet, after drinking some fruit juice she got active for 45mins so I felt kicks on and off.
And today she's been pretty quiet again, maybe im just used to it, but I did feel her kick this morning like 2 or 3 kicks and in the afternoon i've felt her once or twice.
This evening I may have felt her once or twice but really faint.

I know they have lots of room in there at 20-21 weeks but it still worries me when she's quiet, even though I KNOW she can just be laying differently, plus i do have an anterior placenta.
 
I started feeling movements daily from 20 weeks though I had been feeling kicks on and off since 16 weeks and movements even earlier than that. There was a time between 16 and 20 weeks when it sometimes took days for me to feel her - so if you start feeling your baby later then this can be quite normal - I think they only expect us to be able to count movements from 28 weeks actually since they can vary before then, but if you are worried its always better to get checked out. With an anterior placenta you are even more likely not to feel her as much or as early.
 
I have an anterior placenta too and I think at 20-21 weeks it was still fairly irregular. Some days I would feel him more than others. I think it was at about 23-24 weeks that I started to feel him noticeably every day and now it's all the time. xx
