Not much activity yet!
I'm getting kinda depressed. I barely feel any flutters. I sometimes think I feel something, but I don't know if its me or the baby. I'm 20.5 weeks and most girls around that time have feelings.... I hope the feelings start soon. I have another sono on Friday. My little man is always active in the sonos, but I don't feel anything. Could it be because I'm overweight? Anyone else go through this??

Re: Not much activity yet!
I'm sure you will start feeling him soon, Kerry 
ETA: it will just happen one day - the feeling will be so obvious that you will know for sure its baby and not gas. This is how it happened for me.
I think it depends on a bunch of things including the position of the baby - I feel one baby a lot more than the other, even though both are really active on the sonogram.

Re: Not much activity yet!
I started feeling mine around 21 weeks. I am borderline plus size. But I went straight to hard kicks. I felt very little before that. Now they bsically don't stop. And if I eat something sweet one of my babies goes nuts-so you could try drinking some OJ or eating a little candy(peanut butter M&M's work for us) Then for me sitting or laying on my side is when I feel them most

Re: Not much activity yet!
OH DONT WORRY!!!!! And yes, those with a few extra curves tend to feel the kicking a little later (thicker skin, and baby's not that strong yet!!). Also your placenta could be in the way, so it would take more "oomph" to really feel it. Either way you're right at the beginning of when moms start to feel the kicks (especially us first timers who usually feel it later!). I was around 23 weeks when I felt them and KNEW they were baby kicks, vs. flutters, gas, or a thousand other things!!!
VERY soon you'll be feeling them for real, and you might even get  from time to time depending on where baby gets ya!!!!
