I only felt the baby a day or so ago and havent felt it since. Dont worry. Lots of people dont feel it until 21/22 weeks and sometimes later. Its nothing to worry yourself about. Some people feel it early with their 2nd but not everyone. x

you might have an anterior placenta

it's really hard to know what movement feels like the first time around.. I wasn't realizing I was feeling movement until I felt my first kicks at 19 weeks.. then I was like, "oh, this whole time it's been the baby!"

don't worry too much

I sure everything is fine! Most people don't fe movement til 20 weeks plus! Also iv read position of the baby and placenta makes a big difference to when u feel movement! Ur daughter may have been lying in a different place

2 weeks ago I was feeling alot of movements but the past week its been very few and far between so I've been checking hb with doppler and all seems fine. I'm not going to worry as it can take up to 24/5 weeks to start feeling regular movements. We have to remember that baby is quite small still.

Im 23+4 and havent felt tons of movement yet. I get the odd flutter and Sunday i had the best kick i have felt yet but nothing much since. I have my doppler thought and hear her hb loud and clear.

I have an anterior placenta so maybe thats the reason x

i'm 22 weeks today, i have felt flutters for quite a while now but have only felt a few "kicks" in the last week or so but even they are not really strong and i have only felt them as my hand has been on my tummy at the time!

this is my 1st baby and i do not have a anterior placenta, it is positioned against the back wall of my womb! i dont have a doppler but was reassured at my scan that everything was as it should be!

try not to worry

I have only this week felt little kicks, but i gues can depend on your size and baby, i was told by my midwife not to worry baby will kick when they want too xx

i only started feeling butterflies around 18 weeks so i wouldnt worry

Try not to worry hun im sure everything is ok. There are plenty of women who have not felt baby move at your stage. If your worried maybe talk to your mw, just for piece of mind x

I didn't feel movements everyday until about 20 weeks so i wouldn't worry hun.

I think I've felt baby once or twice, but it's been more than 2 weeks. She was perfect at her anatomy scan this morning. I'm 20 weeks.
