17 weeks and NOT really feeling baby?

[erlyjo]

I'm trying hard not to worry, but I'm 17 weeks now and not really feeling anything. I know with my last baby I didn't feel him for sure until 20 weeks, but his placenta was in front and I'm assuming it was padding his motions. Anyone else in this boat?

I'm almost 18 weeks and I feel her occaisionally, but not every day. I think its totally normal and there are so many factors that play into it.

DDC -- Just wanted to let you know that I'm peggo with myh 4th and felt all my other ones by 17 weeks but this one was about 20 weeks before I felt something that I really knew was the baby and not just a *could that be* kinda feeling... Don't worry...

Yup! I've def. felt some movements but I can't always say with 100% was for sure baby. Getting the doppler a few days ago mad eme feel much better and now I know where baby generally is and can feel him/her more.

Even my midwife said 16 weeks was the earliest youd feel baby, even #2 or beyond. Very soon baby will start kicking the crap out of us :-)

With my first my placenta was posterior and I was nearly 20 weeks before I felt anything. Don't worry mama!

I felt this baby move by 15 weeks but I didn't feel my oldest 2 until 20-21weeks.

I think it's common not to feel baby if your placenta is in the front! I just found out that my placenta is posterior and he made a comment that I should have a fun pregnancy with the "alien belly"
