why haven't I felt any movement?

After much anticipation and complaining, i finally started feeling some movement on Friday at 23 weeks. I felt her a few times each day on Fri, Sat, Sun, and Mon. Yesterday I didn't feel her at all and today, I know it's early, but still nothing yet. Should I be concerned?

I didn't feel consistent movement every day until the late 20s - like week 28/29. In fact, I had to go for a sono around week 26 just to ensure everything was ok. and it was. everyone feels movement differently, so don't worry!

If this is your first baby, it is very common to start feeling movement consistently in the mid 20's

I am 21 weeks 2 days and felt little teeny tiny kicks this morning on my way to work. At first I thought I had gas but then realized it was like little kicks

If you just started feeling the baby, then it's likely you won't feel movement every day. I've been feeling my Chat Icon for about 5 weeks and there are still days he's more active than others. I wouldn't be concerned. They say you should feel consistent and daily movement by around 27/28 weeks for a first baby.

I wouldn't worry too much. At that time the movement was very inconsistent for me. If you are very worried, I would drink some orange juice and lie down. That should get the baby moving!

Depends where your placenta is. If its in the front like mine it will be more difficult to feel movements. Hang in there!

I had this with my first - it's totally normal - I didn't feel him for a LONG time, and then when I did, it was enough, but nothing crazy. Once in awhile I'd get a GOOD kick, but never like I'd felt w/ my friends or cousins pregnancies

......until I was pregnant w/ the second and the placenta wasn't there as a cushion ....and that one kicked the crap out of me!!

i have an anterior placenta, which in the beginning, made it more difficult fo rme to feel the baby kicking. Now, I feel her all the time, but some days way more than others. the other day, i was so scred since i hadn't felt her move all day, the day after, she moved around a little ...just because you don't feel the baby, doesn't mean the baby isn't moving, especially if your still early on in your pregnancy...

I'm 26 weeks and still don't feel him constantly. I think it's normal. I'm starting to feel him daily, but it's very inconsistent. I'm not worried. As I wrote that last sentence I got a nice swift kick, haha.
