When did you feel baby move?

I'm 18 + 2 with my first baby and just wondering when you felt your baby move for the first time. I have had a couple of flutterings on a couple of occasions, usually last a few seconds and am when I'm laying in bed at night. I don't know if this is little one moving or not but have been told to expect butterfly feelings. When they properly start moving, how often does it happen?

I've been having wiggles and tiny kicks since 16 weeks (19+1 now) but still haven't had any hard kicks that anyone else can feel

First tickles at about 18 weeks, proper nudges at 20 weeks, kicks you could feel on the outside at 22 weeks.
I have an anterior placenta this time and all kicks were quite sporadic and faint until about 24 weeks.

I felt some pops from about 16 weeks. They’ve got stronger and more frequent now. I’m 19+3 and I’ve been able to feel them with my hand for about a week now. However my friend felt nothing until 22 weeks.

I started feeling little kicks from about 19 weeks.

I had an anterior placenta (wrote it in my notes at 20w scan) so it was more like 24 weeks I think
