Not feeling regular kicks? 16 weeks

Question

It's been a while since my last pregnancy (4 years ago) and I don't think I could feel my son kicking this early because of an anterior placenta. This time around I have felt twinges, mostly pressure against my lower abdomen and maybe 2 'kicks' but nothing consistent. I'll feel it one or two days and then not feel anything for like 4 days after. I'm almost 16 weeks. Is this normal?

Answer

One of the OBs at my practice reminded me today that I shouldn’t worry about consistent movement until 28 weeks

Answer

Definitely normal and each pregnancy is different. I started feeling my second move at 15 weeks and it was always constant but I also had a posterior placenta. I'm 17 weeks with my 3rd and have had flutters since 14 weeks but just started getting some random light taps last week. This one is definitely taking their sweet time letting me feel them, lol.

Answer

Yes. Feeling your baby this early is inconsistent. Second pregnancy and I can go days between feeling the baby.

Answer

I would say I'm 17 weeks and I just did an ultrasound and the baby was kicking and flip-flopping I did however start feeling movement at 15 weeks start off as butterflies and then I felt my first kick a couple days ago I didn't feel anything with my first pregnancy I didn't feel anything until 20 weeks
