Hi when i was 20wks i got so upset about not feeling baby kick that i gave myself migraine. as soon as i saw the scan i was ok, and then felt her properly kick around 22-23wks!! dont worry about anything or it'll get to you, she/he will let you know what they're up to sooner or later :0)
i am now 37wks and she never stops!!! kicking & punching at same time! hope it helps ease ur mind xx

Hi - I was really worried about this exact same thing last week. I phoned my midwife to ask if I could come in and hear the heartbeat through the doppler! Blow me down the day she rang my little baked bean decided to put in an appearance! Kick kick kick is all I get now! Dont panic - all of a sudden you will feel it and it is the most wonderful feeling! Im sure I'll get sick of it after a while and feel like a punch bag! If you are really worried ring your midwife like i did and have your mind put at rest! Bet she/he starts moving around then! hehe xx

sometime you dont know that the baby is kicking if it is your first. Do you not get butterfly feelings or feeling of bubbles popping thats sometimes the baby moving!!!

Hi

sometimes they are hard to figure out. They are not always definate kicks. I dont know how to explain this so sorry if too much info but I felt like i was going to have a dodgy tummy as it felt like I had loads of wind in there that never came out and it was usually on one side.......I now know that this was the baby moving around!

As the other girls have said you might not have recognised whats going on as kicks. It felt more like muscle twitching to me to start with. Now at 25 weks its much stronger. Dont worry everyone feels worried about the same thing ! x
