Still waiting for a swift kick...

in January 2012 Moms
I'll be 21 weeks on Saturday & I still haven't felt an actual kick.  :(  I've felt flutters & movement but nothing really substantial.  My 20-week u/s last Friday showed the baby moving around a lot & everything was great, but I'm just not feeling the kicks yet.  Anyone else in the same boat as me??

    Me! I have felt occasional flutters and there has been maybe 2 *harder* nudges going on down there. It drives me nuts, and then I worry to my husband who tells me to be patient.

    My husband is the same way.  Every time I say I want to feel a big hard kick, he tells me to be careful what I wish for.

    Its still early give it a few more weeks and they will get stronger as the baby gets bigger. When they start they will keep you up all night lol.

    i actually posted something like this last night b/c i am feeling super paranoid some of the girls gave me great advice like movements are kicks and if the baby sits way back you may not feel it as if baby was way up front.... i know we should be carefull what we wish for BUT im waiting for my ninja kick too... :(

    Don't worry, it will happen.  LO's kicks are just now hard enough for DH to feel from the outside.

    I'm right there with you, I haven't even felt any flutters yet!!  At least not that I know of, FTM and I have an Anterior Placenta so thinking it's gonna be a couple more weeks.  Let's just tell our LOs Kick Babies Kick!!!!

    Same here!  21 weeks today and only just now starting to feel a flutter here and there.  At my appointment last week, they were definatly active and kicking, it was just each other!

    I had heard so many people talk about anterior placentas and hadn't really even felt flutters by my 20 week a/s.  So I asked the tech if she could tell the position of my placenta and she said anterior.  I figure it will be a few more weeks and I get jealous when other people talk about theirs, I joke hope/figure I have a snuggly, good sleeping baby coming my way!  A girl can hope!

    I've felt little pops and flutters but nothing very strong and nothing that can be felt from the outside.  Apparently I have an anterior placenta but I had absolutely no idea until my doctor casually mentioned it after my A/S last week.

    i'm so glad that i found this! i'm currently 20w2d and haven't felt anything yet...not even flutters. then again being a first time mom maybe i have and just didn't notice it...? either way, it's good to know that i'm not the only one!

    I didn't feel any serious kicks until 21w6d, that night she kicked hard and I felt it from the outside too.

    I started feeling flutters around 18wk, 3days. Now at 21 weeks, 5 days I'm feeling more movement. No ninja kicks but it is enough to know shes in there and having a field day with my belly aka "baby condo" as my husband calls it. I'm waiting for it to  be able to be felt easier from the outside since no one but me can feel it still.
