I don’t know if I’m over worrying but I’m seeing so many posts about little flutters feelings of kicks/movement… I don’t think I’ve felt any of that 🙁
First baby so not sure if it’s because I don’t know what to expect it to feel like, maybe I’ve missed it. We had our gender scan on Sunday and we have a very healthy baby girl with a strong heartbeat but she’s just not giving her Mumma any kicks or anything! She was moving lots in the womb and my placenta is posterior so I should be feeling things.. right?
Any advice appreciated, just want that magical feeling 🥺

Do you ever get any suddens pains? That's all I've got, it feels like I'm poked but if I wasn't pregnant I'd just think I had a sore kidney or bladder.

Hey I'm having my second child .. with my first child it took me till I was past 20 weeks to feel her kick and move .. with first child can take longer to feel .. this is my second child I'm 17+4 day's.. I'm only just been properly feeling kicks and and punches not fully but slight.... I honestly wouldn't worry Hun as long as she's healthy and strong heartbeat that's main thing .. you'll soon feel them don't worry 🩷

I saw a consultant at hospital last week and she told me to expect kicks around 22 weeks with my first baby. Hope that helps :)

I’m 18 weeks and haven’t felt a thing, haven’t been worried at all. but had early gender scan which was a nice in between reassurance before next scan! Everyone is different so don’t panic 😊

You can feel movement from 16-24 weeks. The advice is that if you haven’t felt movement by 24 weeks, you should seek review from a midwife. So you’ve still got a few weeks yet! It’s totally normal and nothing to worry about.

My midwife said 16-24 weeks. If you haven’t felt anything by 25 weeks speak to midwife. I’m 17 weeks haven’t felt anything but on scans he’s wriggling around and kicking xx

I’m also 17 weeks and haven’t felt anything that I think could be movement yet! Definitely nothing to worry about they say it’s can take longer with your first ☺️

I'm 18+5 and havnt felt anything yet either, first baby too, I can't wait but it feels like it's taking forever! X

17+3 and felt nothing! Just super bloated! It's good to see others haven't too cause so many say that they have already and it makes me stressed!!

I was close to 20 weeks with my first before movement xx

I’m 36 weeks now but saw this and thought I’d reply too! I felt first kicks (super light!) at about 19 weeks, they got more consistent by about 23 weeks x
