I'm 18+2 with my first child and still haven't felt any movement - is this normal? Starting to worry I haven't felt anything yet ☹️

I think this is quite normal. I’m currently 19+3 with my second and I only think I MIGHT have felt something yesterday Confused but had a gender scan last week and all is ok. So I honestly wouldn’t worry about having not felt anything yet with your first at 18 weeks CakeSmile

I didn’t feel my daughter until 24 weeks :)

Do you have an anterior placenta?

Hi OP! I didn't feel anything until around 22+5 and even then it was intermittent. Don't stress

Totally normal esp with a first pregnancy I wouldnt expect to feel anything untill probally 23/24 week mark and even then it will be little flutters. X

Hi OP, don't worry as I think most people don't feel anything until 20+ weeks Smile. As PP have asked, do you have an anterior placenta?
