Movement 20 weeks

[lora-p]

Can anyone tell me if i should be feeling movement by now, I though i felt a few kicks on Friday of last week but i have felt nothing since.
I had a scan just over a week ago and everything was normal.

thanks

I think it differs from person to person. It's dependent on things like the positioning of your placenta, if it is on the front wall of your uterus then it can cushion the kicks and therefore not feel them. Have you had you 20 week scan yet?

I don't think this is anything to be worried about, most of the books say between 18-22 weeks for first movements but as Sarah pointed out, this isn't always the case.

I think every baby / mum is different. I started feeling my little girl at around 16 weeks, but now i'm 24 i can hardly feel a thing. She has been checked out and everything is fine, she's just quiet at the moment, so i would try not to worry too much.
