When did you feel your baby's first kick? Rss

I've just gone 18 weeks with my first bub and I haven't felt an actual kick yet! I've felt the occasional flutter but no kick! Sometimes I get nervous because I thought I should have felt kicks by now. Is this normal??
With my first 18 weeks but I was super super tiny so I think that's why
With my twins 15 weeks I felt my first massive kick smile
I know heaps of people who didn't feel a thing to over 20 weeks as unique said your first baby is always later but with second and so forth babies you k ow what your looking for smile
I felt my first at 16 weeks, with my second preg I didn't feel anything, I thought little flutters and I always thought maybe it's just a late bloomer, but baby was stillborn and we found out at 20 week scan. Get heart rate checked just for reassurance. With my second I felt thumps at 15-16 weeks.
With my first son i was about 24 weeks, i might of felt it sooner but being my first pregnancy i wasn't sure.

My second son i was 16 and a half weeks when i felt him.



the flutters your feeling are little kicks... Some women dont even feel the flutters till after 20 wks. Obviously it depends on where exactly the baby is sitting as the how strong the movements, and as the baby gets bigger you'll start to feel harder kicks.
My 1st pregnancy I felt kicks at about 20 wks, this time about 17wks. Everyone is different smile
Yes everyone is different, and the position of the placenta affects the mother feeling them too. Also how attuned you are or sensitive you are to feelings in your uterus before. Eg. I can feel myself ovulating when I did.
Yes it seems that everyone is quite different when feeling them for the first time. The flutters are very light and get them every half an hour to an hour. Every time I feel them, I think is that really the baby or just wind, haha! It doesn't even happen long enough for DH to have a feel, I want him to be able to feel bubs too!!
16 weeks with my first baby smile
felt flutters at 14weeks


Well soon after I wrote this I felt my first kicks... I'm so thrilled!! They have been pretty constant since grin

I ate a big bowl of veggie soup for lunch and soon after that the kicks started! Bubs must have loved the soup too!

I'm over the moon roll eyes

sounds pretty spot on to me. i felt my first at 18 weeks and it was just bubbles for the first few weeks then turns into little kicks, mid 20's your partner should be able to feel them too.

Yay such a great feeling

With DD1 i didn't feel anything till about week 22... With DD2 it was around 15 weeks and with my current pregnancy it was 16 weeks... Everyone is different i def wouldn't worry..
