Are movements consistent to start with?

Question

Hi guys hope someone can help. I’m currently 18+2 with my first. Last week for about 4 days in a row I swear I could feel baby moving. Now for about the last 4 days I’ve felt nothing apart from mild cramping all day today. Is it normal for the movement to be inconsistent to start with? I don’t want to pester the midwife if it’s something totally normal

Answer

After 28 weeks when you start kick counting

Answer

Its normal for you to not feel movement consistently yet. When they get a little bigger you'll be able to feel them more regularly they are moving its just still probably soft enough that you dont feel it still

Answer

No, they wont become consistent for quite a while. I think kick counts don’t start until the beginning of the third trimester. The baby is small enough still to hide, and we won’t feel them all the time yet.
