29 weeks pregnant, kicks don't feel that strong?

Hi I'm just wondering because they say to start counting kicks around now. I can feel my baby moving around but not to the point that it's painful or annoying or there's some sort of pattern to it at all and I've had people saying it wakes them up and hurts when they kick the ribs, I've had none of that. Should I be worried at all?

I’m 28 weeks pregnant and babys kicks definetly don’t wake me up or hurt. I can feel loads of movement though.

If you are concerned about movements though go and get seen

37 weeks pregnant and the kicks have never woken me up.

He’s still sort of floating around in there at the moment - I’ve found that the movements have only really started to hurt in these last few weeks x

My DS never really got into a pattern of kicks that I could feel - I once was having a scan and the sonographer commented on how much he was moving but I couldn't feel a thing.
According to DH (an insomniac) he was most active at 3am when I was unconscious!

I've got an appointment Tuesday so I'll ask then. I'm the same every scan is oh they're super busy and I apparently have no feeling of it. I'm glad it's not just me!

I'm 30 weeks and 5 days. I wouldn't say my baby had any particular pattern so it's hard to monitor. In that past few days however the kicks are becoming very strong, they haven't woke me up but whilst I was laying in bed watching TV last night some of the kicks did hurt a bit. That's the first time they have hurt and everybody is different.

They aren't always like that. Sometimes I look at my belly and I can see it moving but can't really feel it. He probably moves around more than I notice.

OP- is it normal for the licks to hurt you? Mine did but DD was outrageously strong.

It depends on the baby's position and the size and position of your uterus. I didn't feel any painful kicks or any movements near my ribs until the baby turned head down at 34 weeks, prior to that it was mostly squirming and wriggling rather than kicks. At 39 weeks now and movements are often painful.
