When did movement become routine

Question

I felt my baby kick for the first time at 18 +2 and it was all day and felt her again at 18 +3 all day, only felt one kick at 18 +4 and nothing at all today. :(
Is this normal? When does movement become consistent?

Answer

I'm 22+5 with number 4. Movements are starting to be a little more consistent but not super consistent. I don't get too worried because each baby will have different patterns anyway and I will spend these weeks learning this banus pattern so I am able to detect (hopefully)  when something is wrong.

Answer

Kick counts start at 28 weeks so we have a while before we need to worry about that.

Answer

It’s nothing to worry about really until about week 28, that’s when you may get a kick count sheet explaining how to make sure you’re feeling movement and at that point SHOULD be counting kicks every day to make sure your baby is moving. You may feel them a lot before that, but it’s not until then that doctors will stress movement is important. Don’t freak out yet, they still have lots of space in there!

Answer

I started feeling him every day at 22 weeks. He's kicking around in there right now... 😅

Answer

Totally normal.  You won’t feel consistent moving until around 21/22+ weeks. Also depends on where your placenta is located. I had an anterior placenta with my first (and again with this pregnancy). Both I felt movement around 16 weeks but mostly flutters and didn’t happen everyday. Didn’t feel actual consistent movement with my first until around 21 weeks. And even then I’d use the word “consistent” loosely.  Don’t worry ❤️

Answer

its different for everyone. i have an anterior placenta and was told i wouldnt feel him move till 24 weeks. 
at 18 w i felt my first flutters and now at 21 weeks i feel him kick every day and my s/o can even feel him kicking now. orginally after i first felt him, i felt hkm move two days in a row and then not for another week and a half.
