2nd Trimester

Is it normal to still only feel flutters some days more then others?

I feel them and sometimes I feel them alot one day and then like today I have only felt a few. Is this normal? I hope so. I havent felt well today and have a bad stomach ache going on so is this maybe why I dont feel the baby as much today? Just wanted to get some opinions. Don't want to start freaking out over nothing. I do feel the flutters everyday though,just some days more then others. Thanks ladies!!

  • Completely normal!

    Many women don't start feeling consistent movement for a few more weeks. Some don't feel anything until 22 weeks or so at all, so you have nothing to worry about!

  • Even after the flutters turn into kicks this is normal. I find that LO is quieter right before a big growth spurt (probably because it's out of room).  Think of it this way: Are you a bundle of energy every day? Neither is LO...everybody needs a nap sometimes :)

  • Mine is just like his daddy already lol...

    From weeks 17-20ish I felt large, outside moving kicks then from 21 to now I feel fluttering and some small kicks occasionally there have been acouple days where I havent felt him at all but I am assured he just is awake when Im asleep.

    Today I went for my 24 week appointment and was asked by my doctor about his movement so I explained that his Movement and strength has changed however I think its his position. Two minutes later she goes to put the doppler on my tummy and he kicks the crap out of it, could barely get a heart reading. he made me out to look like a liar but Im happy he made some movement. 


  • I don't know (but I'm sure it's fine), but mine is the same way. Also, I sometimes I feel more movement with certain foods and at certain times of the day.
