I'll hit 20 weeks on Thursday and so far have felt nada. Should I be worried? When did everyone else feel their first kick?

    Don't be worried.  I didn't feel one until 22 weeks or so (this is my first pregnancy).  In hind sight after seeing the 20 week ultrasound, I was feeling the baby move but was attributing the movements to other things like gas, which from what I read is common.  The ultrasound helped me figure out how little one was moving which made it easier for me to figure out what the random this or that were and if it was baby or not.  HTH

    I was almost 21 weeks when I felt the first little movement.  It also took me a while to figure out that was what it was.

    I felt movement at 17 weeks.  We were at a wedding, which didn't start until 7pm.  We then went to the reception and were waiting for the bridal party to arrive.  I was starving.  They had apps set out, but most of them were gone by the time we arrived, so I chowed down on tons of fresh pineapple.  I felt the baby moving around like crazy immediately after eating.  I think it was b/c I didn't have any food in my stomach and then ate all that pineapple, thus getting a sugar rush. 

    I started feeling real kicks, instead of just flutters, around 20-21 weeks.

    I was also 21 weeks when I first felt what I knew to be a definite kick.  I guess I should have realized back then that if this baby made me wait that long to feel a kick, s/he would make me wait this long to meet him or her!

    I was right around 19 or 20 weeks and I think I only felt kicks then because my pants were getting too tight and baby was trying to make room for himself! ;-). I would not worry - you will feel the kicks soon.

    I think they say it is normal to start feeling kicks and flutters anywhere between 17 and 25 weeks.
