I did not. Once I started feeling movement, I felt it every day with both of my LOs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2076007 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 00:57:53 +0000 nana87 2076007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wasn't until later that my dr had me do kick counts, I think 25 weeks or so, and before it was much more more sporadic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075981 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 00:03:26 +0000 sarac 2075981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't feel my first every day until 22 weeks or more. With this one, I'm feeling her daily at 18 weeks, but only because she's kicking the crap out of my cervix. Which is not awesome, to be honest. But it is nice to know that she's in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075940 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 22:47:24 +0000 littlejoy 2075940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weeks 22-26 were the hardest for me. I felt a ton of little movements starting at 18 weeks, and then there would be days without it. I'm so sorry, but it sounds like it's pretty normal. I remember hitting 26 weeks, and suddenly being able to feel her every day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075938 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 22:45:10 +0000 mfa_lady 2075938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt them sporadically for quite some time--then started feeling them daily closer to 30 weeks. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075843 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 20:39:27 +0000 MrsKMM 2075843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks again for all of your input. She's been partying for the last half hour, so that's a relief :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075211 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 12:52:37 +0000 miramira 2075211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is something that worried me too but i figured out that i couldn't feel him when he had his limbs facing inwards, towards my back. As he grew, it became easier to feel more movements. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2075144 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 12:11:20 +0000 Mrs. Pickles 2075144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was feeling this way exactly today! Thanks for posting </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074597 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 23:51:26 +0000 SunshineMcC 2074597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's totally normal not to feel regular movement that early on, but check with your doctor. I'm sure they'll reassure you all is well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074341 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:21:32 +0000 FaithFertility 2074341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKMM: I would go a few days around then and feel no movement, it drove me NUTS!!!! The baby still has a lot of room and could be facing your back, you could have an anterior placenta like me acting as a punching bag....if your anxiety is high ask to go in to hear heart beat, I did many times always helped me! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074326 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:12:27 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2074326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is normal not to feel consistent movements that early on. At 28 weeks or 3rd tri is when you should be feeling daily movements and do kick counts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074315 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:04:41 +0000 MrsKMM 2074315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone, this makes me feel better! :happy: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074314 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:04:18 +0000 MsHangry 2074314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Echoing previous posters, it wasn't until 26weeks that I started feeling movement everyday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074307 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 20:01:02 +0000 MrsBucky 2074307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My midwife didn't mention anything to me about monitoring movement until 30 weeks. Before then it was definitely not an all the time thing. When I hit 30 weeks, I was told if I didn't feel anything in a few hours, to eat and drink something and focus on trying to feel movement, and if I still didn't, then to call. Suffice it to say, I've never had to call (thank goodness!) So I think it's still fine at this point for you to sometimes feel baby and sometimes not! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074287 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:45:39 +0000 meredithNYC 2074287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an anterior placenta and it took a while to consistently feel movement (like 25 weeks), but now at 31 I feel it almost constantly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074285 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:45:31 +0000 Banana330 2074285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKMM: I didn't start feeling her daily until 26-27 weeks. Even now (32w) she'll move way more some days than others. Only once did I have so little movement that I did a kick count, she made the 10 kicks in the 2hrs but the next day she was kicking like crazy. I think it's 28w before you start to count etc. </p> <p>Sometimes they are just facing the wrong way or not strong enough to feel yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074282 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:44:13 +0000 Torchwood 2074282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely felt movement very sporadically when I first started feeling it. It was a while before it got frequent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074277 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:42:09 +0000 blackbird 2074277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Inconsistent movement until about 6 months. Now its every day at 28 weeks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074273 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:39:36 +0000 YouGotMe 2074273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an anterior placenta so I didn't feel my baby move until 25 weeks. I was 35 weeks pregnant before I felt her move most days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074261 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:35:31 +0000 MrsKMM 2074261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PawPrints: Not that I know of. I'm going back to the MFM specialist on the 27th because she was really uncooperative at the anatomy scan (they didn't get all the images they needed) so maybe I'll ask about it then. Thanks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074250 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:26:53 +0000 PawPrints 2074250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we have an abnormally high level of fetal activity, as I have felt strong movement practically all day long since around 19 weeks or so. But I don't think it's that unusual to have less activity as you are. Do you have anterior placenta? I think the main thing to be concerned about is if you notice a major reduction in activity from previous levels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-baby-kick-on-a-daily-basis#post-2074231 Tue, 17 Feb 2015 19:12:04 +0000 MrsKMM 2074231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started feeling movement toward the end of 19 weeks. By 20 weeks, I could tell with certainty it was her kicking/moving. I'll be 22 weeks tomorrow. I don't feel her move every day. Sometimes I go 2-3 days without feeling anything. Is that typical? I'm currently on day 3 of not feeling anything, and it bothers me (hello, anxiety!). I also have to be laying a certain way to feel it. (As I type this I think I feel her again!!) Should I be feeling movement daily? Did you feel it daily? I worry way too much...Thanks for your input :) </p>
