When did you first feel them kick?

First time mum here!!! I’m soon to be 24 weeks and have yet to feel a proper “kick”! I’ve felt the squirming when I have my hands on my stomach but that’s about it. My midwife did mention I have a high anterior placenta so I assume it won’t be for a while which is a bit deflating!!When did people start feeling baby properly kick? xxxx

With my first pregnancy I also had an anterior placenta and my first kicks were at 24 weeks! This pregnancy I have a posterior placenta and first kicks was at about 16/17 weeks xxx

I started feeling kicks at 21 weeks very lightly but she’s kicking a lot more now I’m 23 weeks x

I was about 23/24 weeks when I felt little flutterings but I couldn’t quite tell. It wasn’t until about 28weeks did I really notice. It’s reassuring and terrifying all at the same time when you do feel kicks and movements. I started talking to my little one about 23 weeks.

my first was around the 28 week mark for first kicks, now second baby I've just hit my 30 weeks mark and the karate kicks have come in full force and full body rolls, when baby starts to run out of room you'll definitely be feeling them 😅

I had an anterior placenta too, and it was definitely late for me. Even when I did start to feel them it felt a bit like wind going round my tummy 😂 they got stronger around 26 weeks x

I felt baby first move at 18 weeks x
