movements

[lauren_s]

I'm 21 weeks and am feeling movements, some days there seems to be a lot and other days, like today, hardly any. Is this normal? Should I not be worried about regular movements until about 28 weeks?
Thanks for any help

At 21 weeks i felt movements infrequently too. Sone days I didn't notice any. Now it never stops! I wouldn't be too worried yet.

This is my second preg and it seems like I get less movements now at 21 weeks than I did with my first, but that's probably just me stressing. I do have days where bub is very quiet then a couple of days when it's going mad.

I spoke to my midwife on Tuesday and she said they don't start to worry about kick counting until around 30 weeks. She said at this point the baby is still quite small and you won't feel much.

I also find that I feel more lower down, ie when bub is head up and kicking down towards my lady bits. If it is facing the other way and kicking up towards my chest I don't feel them as much yet.
