baby movements

I'm 18 weeks 4 days and still have not felt the baby move. This is my first baby, anyone else noe feel it move yet?

Give it a couple more weeks. You're in the norm as a FTM.

Thanks it seems that everyone I talk to said they felt it move by 18 weeks so it makes me a little worried!

I didnt feel my son till 20 weeks on the nose. I think 16-22 weeks is considered normal for FTM! Nothing to worry about!

I'm just now starting to feel a few thumps here and there.  Friday was the first day I *thought* I felt anything and by last night I was sure they were baby thumps.

With DS I was ~22 weeks before I felt any movement. 

I also have had an anterior placenta (very common) both times, which delays when you feel first movement.  Definitely nothing to worry about!

This is my second and "they" say you feel baby earlier the second time.  Not true in my case.  Felt DD at 16 weeks and this one is taking it's time.  Felt a few kicks, but only every few days and def. not consistant. 

Def. normal not to feel anything until 20 weeks sometimes.

I am 18 weeks 2 days and no movements yet. I can't wait to feel a little kick though!!

I'm just over 18 weeks as well and am not convinced that I have felt movement either - patiently (actually impatiently haha) waiting though!

I'll be 19w tomorrow and I haven't felt any movements, at least none that I can distinguish from gas.  I hoping that I'll feel them in the next week or so because, even though I know it is normal, it would be reassuring.

Sometimes I THINK I've felt something, but nothing really consistent. So.... guess we'll just have to wait.
