2nd Trimester

18.5 weeks and still not feeling anything

And it's annoying.  i just want to feel a kick...not asking for much.  Anyone else this far along and not feeling anything?

Re: 18.5 weeks and still not feeling anything

  • With my daughter, I did not feel anything until almost 22 weeks.  I am not super skinny, but not super huge either.  I am feeling this new little one way earlier.  It is so frustrating, because with my daughter, after about 17 weeks, people kept asking if I was feeling the baby kick all the time, and it made me feel bad that I wasn't.

     

    It is totally normal, especially with a first pregnancy, to not feel the baby until after 20 weeks.

  • I didn't feel anything that I KNEW to be baby until about 19-20 weeks.  Hang in there, it will happen.

  • I felt one, just one, flutter at 18 weeks, but I couldn't tell if my cat twitched or I did (she was laying on my stomach).  It wasn't until 19+ weeks that I started feeling a bit more.  I felt a real kick, and saw it too, at 21 weeks.  Do you have an anterior placenta?  That could explain it, or baby could be facing the back, or is just a quiet baby.  I know the waiting game is hard, but once you get there, you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face!
  • I'm 19w1d, with my little boy measuring 20w1d, and I still haven't felt anything! I know I have an anterior placenta, but still!!!! I know he's ok and all, but I haven't even felt anything that could remotely be him moving around!
  • Don't feel a thing yet and I am thin which they say can lead to earlier feelings of movement. I just want to feel something down there!!

  • I'm 19 weeks and don't feel anything.  At our u/s on Monday the tech showed us him kicking right next to my belly button and asked if I felt anything.  Nope, nada. 
  • I didn't feel twitches until 20 weeks.


  • Thanks!  I feel better, I'm not alone Smile
