Kicking issues

[Rhoda04]

I don't know if I shud be worried, I ll be 20 wks in 3 days and I haven't felt a kick yet, though I feel it turning sometimes. It's my first. My appointment isn't until two weeks time.

You probably won't feel baby properly until about 25 weeks hun if this is your first baby. I felt bubbles with our boy at 19 weeks but I was unsure. Didn't feel him properly until about 23 weeks xx

I agree with the above. I didn’t feel proper movement until about 23/24 weeks plus my placenta was at the front which can sometimes make it harder to feel xx

I agree with bob comments Hun with my first I was 27 weeks when I felt her proper, it also depends on where your placenta is too if it’s to the front it cushions the kick longer. Don’t worry he/she will soon let you know their there 🙂congratulations x

Thanks all.

You could have an anterior placenta which is cushioning all your kicks. First time all your muscles will be tighter too xx

Hello Rhoda, during my scan, my sonographer mention that my placenta is between my tummy and the baby and it’s pretty thick. Because of its position, I won’t feel the kick until late. That was during my 12 weeks scan and I’m in 18 weeks. I hope this helps. Ask about this during your next scan.

I’m the same with placenta, I’m 17+4 and haven’t felt anything yet.

[Rhoda04 in reply to Sooikim]

Thanks, I will ask.

I’ve felt my little boy kick since I was around 18 weeks I’m now 24 weeks, as you get further gone you feel more movement, I think everyone is different x

I only felt my two kick around 23 and 22 weeks, if I remember correctly. Definitely way past the 20 week mark. I had the placenta in that position where you tend to feel the kicks later, at just under 20 weeks it's frustrating, but not uncommon not to have felt any kicks yet.

I didn't feel kicks til about 25 weeks ! I had several ultra sounds/scans and I was told my baby was moving a lot right while they were doing my scans! But I couldn't feel nothing! It was my first pregnancy! Congratulations sweetie ❤️💚💜💛

Hi, it's such a worry isn't it but try not to panic. I'm 25 weeks pregnant with my fist and started feeling him at 21 weeks then not much and now just starting to notice him at intervals throughout the day.
