When did you feel movements with your 2nd?

I have read a lot on here that has left me worried. I am currently 17+4 and haven't felt anything. There are a few threads on here where people have said you feel movement earlier with your 2nd and some people have been feeling movement since 10 weeks+.

Should I be worried?

I wouldn't worry, I think a lot of it depends on your placenta and lots of people don't feel no 2 till relatively late, it's just you notice those that feel it early coz they write about it

I never looked at it like that, doesn't make me abnormal then? Phew

Hi. Also felt my first move early about 16 weeks and no definite movements with the second (due in 8 weeks) till I was about 20/21 weeks. At my 20 week scan they did tell me the placenta was laying at the front and may have had something to do with the lack of movement felt. Sure all is fine.x

I was about 16 weeks but tbh it was a real faint feeling, I think when you've already had one baby the feeling of a baby kicking you remember is the full on boot in the ribs type thing, I'd totally forgotten about the little bubbles and flutters that you get earlier on?
So the early movement, for me, at around 16 weeks was flutters rather than full on kicking.
Now 26 weeks and theres no mistaking the movements!
