Hiya everyone. I’m 23 weeks pregnant and I still haven’t felt my baby kick :( my friend is at around the same stage as me and she feels her baby boy move all the time. I’m getting quite concerned and would just like some advice and maybe some of you ladies can share your experiences? 🙂 thanks! Xxx

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'm 27 weeks today and it's only very recently I have started to feel movement and it's still not that often. The midwife told me to start expecting to notice the movements by week 28 on your first so don't worry too much ☺️

Did they tell you where your placenta is at your 20 week scan?

Mine is anterior so it was probably absorbing the impact of movements for quite a while. I didn't feel much until 23/24 weeks I think.

I was exactly the same, OP, and it got me down as well.

From about 24 weeks I started feeling the "bubbles" sensation that many report, but only at night when I was drifting off to sleep.

Not long later these turned into stronger movements I'd feel typically 20 mins or so after eating.

I'm now 28 weeks and feel movements throughout the day - proper kicks and turns, its often startling

Don't worry, OP. You'll get them soon!
