Hi OP, I didn't feel my first movement until I was 23 weeks pregnant. I had an anterior placenta, do you know the placement of yours?

Have you had your 20 week scan, was baby ok? Did you see baby move on the scan?

If this is your first pregnancy, you may be experiencing movements but not realising it.

Kicks Count is a charity that is in all hospitals and maternity units. Here's the link about movements. Any concerns with a reduction in movements needs to be discussed with your maternity unit immediately.

I recently went for a private scan as was concerned about this (second baby too so I know what to look for) and was told I have anterior placenta which cushions any movement. Was this mentioned at all at your 20 weeks scan?
