    Feeling Baby Move.when is normal?
    Is it normal to not feel your baby move at 15-16 weeks? I thought I felt something a week ago, but haven't felt anything since then. Im so paranoid that something might be wrong with the baby. This is my second, and with my daughter I felt her at 19 weeks, but they say with your second or more child you should feel kicks or flutters earlier. But Im not, so Im wondering if something could be wrong. Thank you for all advice.:)

    Quickening is felt normally between 15 and 25 weeks so you're good to go. Sources do say that second time moms are likely to feel the baby earlier BUT as with everything, this is not always the case. Give it some time and you'll start noticing the little flutters. They'll probably start being noticeable about the time you first born's were noticeable. Everything is fine!

    I agree. You're still very early and I think most women feel movement between 17 - 19 w for the first time.

    Mine didn't become "obvious" until 21w even though I felt a slight twinge at 17w.

    Regular movement won't necessarily be noticed until 26-28w.
