Just so you know sometime baby has it's butt against your tummy and you won't feel baby kick. My daughter is very very active and I'm 21 weeks. I have felt her move at a very early she. I was in the hospital last night due to constant cramping. I wasn't feeling her move much. The nurse said oh wow she won't sit still but I couldn't feel it.

I was having cramping too, I'm still pretty small and wasn't feeling him move much but then I could literally feel his butt sticking out and could see it on one side. very uncomfortable but he wasn't kicking and that's when I was cramping.

My doctor told me until I'm 28 weeks to not worry about when I do and don't feel the baby :)

I find the days that I move more, baby moves less. Or I feel it less. But I think they sleep more if we're more active. I was kinda antsy last night because I hadn't felt many kicks all day and usually I do especially at night but I worked 8 hours then cleaned for 3 so I think he/she was just napping more or something because been kicking again this morning.

Im 22 weeks as well. I began to feel flutters roughly around 18 weeks (5th pregnancy, unfortunately lost one due to a missed misscarriage ). I have my days to where i can feel kicks and punches frequently and then i have days that i dont feel much movement. Like today, i felt him shifting around when i woke up and havent felt much so far.

Me, too. Little kicks around 18 weeks. Last week was week 21 & it was like baby wouldn't stop! Last week was almost non stop movement that doubled when daddy was around & talking! The quiet days are really quiet, though, very little movement.

The strength of my babies movements depend on the way he is positioned mainly...he has active days and then he has sluggy days, so it really varies

I'm in the same boat! It's hard not to worry, so I'm glad I'm not alone!

Mine has moved like crazy since early on but I find she goes day without me feeling her my placenta is anterior and for the past 3 days it's been pretty consisitsnt but I noticed she didn't wake me up this am .. So I'm eating and I'm sure she will wake up .. But I was told they are still kinda small right now she can still hide under my placenta and turn upside down to where I don't feel her

Same here! I'm 22 weeks 4 days and been feeling him on some days but not others. I think until about 26 weeks you don't feel them all the time!
