When did first time mums feel the baby first kick

Question

I'm currently 17 weeks and haven't felt babys kicks yet I'm quite skinny so I'm wondering if it's normal :(

Answer

A huge factor is going to be placenta location. If you have an anterior placenta you won't feel movements until much later on because the placenta is in front of the baby absorbing all the movement. If you have a posterior placenta, is in the back and the baby is closer to your stomach where you can feel movements earlier.
