Usually you will not feel the baby move on a regular basis until after 20 weeks, it could be later than that, I am not for certain. I am 17 weeks and feel flutters etc a few times a day maybe every other day. If you are really concerned call your doctor, they may let you come in to hear the heartbeat to ease your mind.

i go thursday i really wanna wait til then im scared, and nervous is this your first one,?

i'm sure the baby is fine. if its you 1st you probably won't know an actual kick at 19+ weeks. this is my second and he didn't start moving a whole lot until about 22 weeks. What helped ease my mind was I would lay on my back in bed and just nudge my belly. every now and then I would feel a faint move or poke.

yea i know and yes this is my first one, . i just pray to god my little one is okay.

I didn't feel daily movement until 24wks. Baby still sleeps a lot and also is still small enough to hide. Don't worry

you're not even supposed to start counting movements until 28wks.

okay thanks alot i feel better now,(:

@iloveyu this is my 3rd, so I understand your worries, but sometimes we as mothers worry a little to much. Your baby is probably just fine and in a few more weeks you will be feeling the real kicks and then you will be on here telling us how much they hurt. Just stay calm.

lol,(: thank you so much, and i cant wait(: i need to stop worrying.

You wont feel regular movement till 25-28 weeks I'd say. At 28 weeks ur supposed to start a kick count.

@iloveyu I was freakin out at 17 weeks 4 days and just to ease my mind, I went to the ER and heard her heartbeat.

but then at 21 weeks, I didn't feel her move for 4 days!!! Went in again,they did an ultrasound and turned out she was behind my placenta so when she kicked, or punched it was like she was punching a pillow. Lol now ill be 25 weeks on Friday and she moves every now and then but I just have to trust God. Each time i went, she was fine so I'm just thinkin its the same. But when she does move, oh she moves! Haha I'm talking I get Sharp bladder pains and feel like she's trying to get my bladder to come out. :-D she's feisty. Is this your first? It's my first but either way.. congrats!!!!
