16 weeks now and i havent felt any proper kicks yet, just maybe some weird bubbly feeling sometimes which im not even sure about. When did urs start kicking properly?
I keep waiting to feel kicks and I'm 19 weeks, is it normal to not feel much yet? Some of my friends felt it earlier and now I'm a bit anxious. My doc said hold on, its coming soon.
I felt the first proper kick around 22 weeks and I literally cried, it was so tiny and so magical. Before that it just felt like gas bubbles honestly. Dont worry if it takes a while.
First time moms usually feel kicks around 20 weeks, second time often earlier near 16-18 because you recognise it. Early on its like little flutters, the real thump thump kicks come a bit later.
My gynac said quickening usually happens between 16 and 25 weeks, varies by person and placenta position. She told me once I'm in later weeks to track daily kicks, and if movements drop noticeably to call her right away.
